Cricket 1891

MAY 21, 1891 CRICKET A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 117 DERBYSHIRE v. LE ICESTERSH IRE. The Leicestershire eleven had the best of their opponents at every point in this match, begun at Derby on Monday, and were left yes­ terday with an easy victory by an innings and 75 runs. Though Chatterton and Mr. Wright put on 84 for Derbyshire’s first wicket,Walton, who made a very successful debut against Surrey at the Oval, bowled with such effect that the total was only a little more than doubled. The two batsmen named made ex­ actly one half of the total from the bat. When Leicestershire’s turn came to bat some fast scoring was recorded, and when play ceased on Monday the total was 206 for four wickets, of which Mr. De Trafford had contributed 88 and Pougher 50 not out. On Tuesday Pougher and Holland continued to score rapidly, and the partnership realised 164 runs. Pougher’s 135 is the highest innings he has,so far, played for the county, and in proof of its excellence it need only be added that it was free from a chance. Derbyshire had a heavy task before them when they entered on their second innings no less than 238 runs to the bad. Thanks again to the good cricket of Chat­ terton and Mr. Wright, they had made 63 of them on Tuesday night for the loss of the latter and Mr. Evershed. Chatterton in­ creased his score yesterday to 50, but wit h the exception of Mr. Spofforth, who hit vigourously for his 32, Pougher and Walton had very little difficulty in disposing of the remaining batsmen, and the last eight wickets were secured for an addition of exactly 100 runs.

L in co ln sh ire . —This match played at Darlingto* on Whit Monday and Tuesday.produced some extiaordinary cricket. On Monday Durham scored the big total of 328, to which their opponents responded with 215 for four wickets. This they increased on Tuesday to 333, of which Mr. C. F. Wells Cole contributed no less than 220. On Durham going in a second time runs were again put on quickly,and when the match and stumps were drawn they had put together no fewer than 295 for two wickets, H. Hutton contributing 106 and J. Young 110 (not out). In the two days, 956 runs were scored for 22 wickets, giving an average of over 43 runs per wicket.

KENT, Rain interfered considerably with the progress of this inter-county match, arranged tor the first three days of the week at Bristol, so much so that when play was abandoned yesterday, only fifteen wickets had fallen. Owing to the heavy downfall on Sunday and the following morning no attempt was made to commence the game on Monday at all. Winning the toss on Tuesday, Mr. W .G. Grace decided to take the innings, and as usual went to the wickets first with his elder brother as his partner. Martin and Wright started the bowling for Kent, but the latter was so lame from rheumatism that he had to leave the field after sending down fourteen overs. Alec Hearne, however, took his place, and with great success, as will be seen from the analysis. W.G., who is in excellent form this season, played with all his wonted confi­ dence and judgment, and he had made46 outof 78 runs in an hour and forty minutes when he was caught. Messrs. Cranston and Sainsbury, the latter of whom played for the first time for Gloucestershire, made a useful stand, but otherwise things went badlyfor the in-side,and the innings ultimately closed for a total of 135. Mr. Francis,we may add, was in an hour and three quarters for ten runs, and at one time was batting for half an hour without scoring. Alec Hearne, as will be seen, took five of the ten wickets at a cost of only 28 runs. Kent opened their innings inauspiciously, losing Alec Hearne at 15, and Mr. Patterson at 28. Messrs. Daffen and Fox brought the total to 42 before the latter was bowled, and the former remained with George Hearne till the end of the day, When the score was 88, Hearne not out 29, and Mr. Daffen not out 19. Yesterday Hearne, who had played excellent cricket, was bowled after adding fifteen, and then the game had to be suspended owing to rain. Another downfall followed Mr. Mitchell’s dismissal, and after one more resumption the match had to be given up alto­ gether owing to the wet. Kent at the finish, as will be seen, were eight runs to the good with half their wickets in hand. G loucestershire . Mr. W. G. Grace, c Patterson, b A. Hearne ................. 46 Mr. E. M.
