TW EN TY -THREE OF SYDENHAM AND D ISTR ICT . A match , under this title, for the benefit of Gregory, the ground man to the Sydenham C lu b , took p lace on Sept. 18 at Sydenham . The eleven, who had first to take the field, were able, chiefly through the how ling of G. G. Hearne and Mr. Northcote, to get the Twenty-three out for 138. Hearne took eight wickets for 29, a nd F . H. B arry was the chief scorer w ith 21. The E leven made a poor show when they went in to bat. Barton , of Kent, w as the only one to get double figures. Follow ing on, they did better, but when p lay ceased were only 14 on with but four w ickets to fall. T w e n t y - t h r e e . E.Francis,bA.Hearne 4 E.H.Huish, c Gregory, b G.

THE BATSMEN . Below we give the averages of the different cricketers who have taken part in the more important matches of the season o f 1889. The figures, we may briefly state, are taken from the engagements of the eight leading Counties, the chief fixtures of the Marylebone Club, o f Oxford and Cambridge, tlie matches between Gentlemen and Players, North and South, and some f ew other eleven a-side con ­ tests o f importance. In batting Gunn is clearly entitled to the first place, as he has played more than tw ice as many times as Shrewsb comes second. I t is worthy of r that the first three places are a by Nottingham men, Barnes reall third with an excellent average th irty-four and a half runs. Am o amateurs Mr. Leslie W ilson is nom first, but Mr. W . G. Grace has a m record, and it w ill be em inently g to all cricketers to see that he has t aggregate of any cricketer of the ye Barnes, Abel and Mr. Key are, it w i the only other batsmen who have sc thousand runs.
