NOTTS. The instances of an important fixture com­ pleted in a day have fortunately been ao rare, that this match, which was begun and finished at Lord’s on Monday, is sure to rank as one of the greatest curiosities of the year. M.C.C. had been able, as will be seen, to collect a strong team, including no less than four Aus­ tralian cricketers, in the persons of Phillips and Messrs. Murdoch, Ferris, and Pope. On the other hand, the County was without its captain, Mr. J. A. Dixon, as well as Arthur Shrewsbury, and their absence detracted considerably from the interest of the match. The ground was just recovering from the heavy rains of the previous week, and Dr. W. G. Grace winning the toss for the Club, think­ ing that the wicket must improve, determined on the bold policy of putting his opponents in. The result of the game, however, more than justified Mr. Grace’s deoision. W ith a wicket exactly suited to him, indeed, Mr. Ferris bowled with such effect that, in the short space of an hour and five minutes, Notting­ hamshire were dismissed for the smallest total that has been recorded for some time in a first-class matoh. Only 15 runs were scored from the bat, and no less than seven batsmen were dismissed for a cipher. Mr, C. W . Wright, who went in first and was out last but one, alone made any stay, and it took him an hour to score 5 runs. After Rawlin (who also had exceptional figures) had taken the first four wickets, Mr. Ferris secured the remaining six in thirteen overs, at a cost of only 7 runs, a bowling achievement which is not likely to be equalled for some time. When the Marylebone innings was begun, the ground was getting better every minute, and the batting presented a great contrast. In this department, too, the Aus­ tralian contingent predominated, and Messrs. Murdoch and Pope, as well as Mr. Pope and Davidson, subsequently made the longest stands of the innings. Mr. Pope was at the wickets an hour and three quarters for his 31, and his innings was a highly creditable display of defensive cricket. Of the seven bowlers tried by Notts, Mr. Redgate was the most successful, and he finished off the innings in summary fashion. Though the Club had the handsome sum of 106 runs in hand at the close of an innings, it was generally antici­ pated [that, with the wicket still improving, Notts would make’a better show. For a short time this promise was maintained, and Mr. Wright and William Attewell, going in just before half past five, hit up 37 before the latter had to leave. Then, however, came a series of disasters, Gunn, Barnes, and Flowers being disposed of in quick succession. W ith the best batsmen on the side gone, the proba­ bilities of the game being finished on Mon­ day increased, and the end in fact was not long in coming. Phillips suoceeded in getting Mr. Wright out lbw with the total at 68, and the addition of another run saw the termination of the in­ nings. M.C.C. were thus left with a brilliant victory, having 37 runs and an innings in hand. The most noteworthy feature of a sensational match was the bowling of Mr. Ferris. His record in the two innings of Notts was a phenomenal one, showing eleven wickets for 32 runs. The wicket of course was all against the batsmen, but this will not explain the complete failure of the Notts eleven. Mr. Wright and William Atte­ well alone played with any confidence. The latter, who opened the batting each time, was the ninth wicket down in the first and eighth in the second innings. His second score of 39, a most creditable display, was the highest contribution on either side. N otts . First Innings. Mr. C. W.
