Cricket 1891

164 CBICKET: A WEEKLY EECOED OF THE GAME. JUNE 11, 1891 well he is generally effective. A batsman, too, with no lack of confidence and plenty of ability as well as power to hit all round the wicket, he makes runs fast when he gets in. He has also the additional merit of being a good field. While at Harrow he was in the school foot­ ball eleven, but owing to an injury to his leg gave up the game two years ago. Mr. Jackson, we may add, is a son of the Financial Secretary to the Treasury. He weighs 12st. 121bs. and is 5ft. ll£in. in height. Our portrait is from a photograph by Hills and Saunders, of Cambridge. MIDDLESEX v. NOTTS. The Middlesex eleven are to be heartily con­ gratulated on a brilliant victory over Notts at Lord’s on Tuesday, and the more so that they had very much the worst of the previous day’s play. Notts were without Gunn, and the want of his batting was of course a serious loss to the side. More than one change has latterly been made in the eleven, though, and this time places were found for the Old Har­ rovian, Mr. J. S. Robinson, and Mr. G. Beves, as well as Mr. Wright. Though Middlesex were at the outset lucky enough to get rid of Shrewsbury for a couple of runs, Mr. Robinson and Barnes were not so easily separated, and their partnership added 55 runs, the result of excellent batting. Mr. Wright was in an hour and three-quarters for his 21, but after all the most lively cricket of the innings was while the last two men, Shacklock and Sher­ win, were together, and they added 44 in half an hour by free hitting. Hearne and Mr. Nepean both bowled well, but the former would have had much better figures had the Middlesex fielding been more accurate. Mid­ dlesex in their turn made a poor show against he bowling of Shacklock and Attewell, and this pair were unchanged during the innings. Five of the best batsmen were out with the score only 33, *;and though Mr. Johnston hit freely, and Rawlin played with great care and judgment, Monday’s play closed with the fall of the last Middlesex wicket for 96. Wanting exactly a hundred^ to save the innings, Middlesex made a bad start again on Tuesday morning, and with Messrs. Webbe, Stoddart, and Scott out with the total only 20 an easy win for Notts seemed a safe prediction. Mr. Johnston’s resolute hitting, however, upset all these calculations and entirely altered the whole appearance of the game. Mr. Nepean helped him to add 53 for the fourth wicket, and Rawlin who followed was again seen to such advantage that the score was increased by 79 before Mr. Johnston was out. He had made 85 in two hours and a quarter, and as a dis­ play of resolute and powerful batting his innings was worthy of the highest praise. Just at the last, too,West hit with great vigour, and he scoed 48 of the last 56 runs with one life, an easy chance in the country when he had made 6. Though they wanted 134 to win, there seemed every reason for believing, as the ground was, that this was a task well within the capacity of the Nottinghamshire eleven. As it was, however, the earlier batsmen made a very poor show against the bowling of Mr. Nepean and Hearne, and when the sixth wicket fell the total was only 28. Some free hitting by Mr. Beves infused a little life into the game, but except for a stand at the last by Mr. Robinson and Sherwin no real opposition was made to the Middlesex bowling. The innings, indeed, lasted a little under two hours, and before seven o’clock on Tuesday Middlesex had gained a most creditable victory with49 runs to spare. The result was mainly due to the good batting of Mr. John­ ston and Rawlin and the effective bowling of Hearne and Mr. Nepean. These two bowlers were both successful to about the same degree, Hearne’s nine wickets costing 98, Mr. Nepean’s eight 87 runs. N otts . First Innings. Mr.J.S.

The Derbyshire eleven did a good per­ formance at Derby this week, defeating, with the one exception of Lord Hawke, the best eleven Yorkshire is able to put into the field when the Universities are up, yesterday by 45 runs. Lucky enough to win the toss, Derbyshire batted first on a good wicket, and made fair use of the opportunity, keeping Yorkshire in the field three hours, and scoring 157 runs. The chief credit of this performance rested with Mr. Evershed and Chatterton, who added 70 runs in a little under an hour. The amateur hit with all his wonted freedom, making his runs without an actual chance. Chatterton’s display presented a great con­ trast. Going in first wicket down, lie carried out his bat, the only flaw in a very steady innings being a chance in the long*field when he had got 31. At the finish, too, Mr. Walker and Porter were seen to advantage, and this pair helped to add 61 for the last two wickets. Hall and Ulyett made such a good start for Yorkshire that when play ceased on Monday night the score was 77, with only one bats­ man out. On Tuesday morning, however, after the dismissal of Hall, who was batting two hours and twenty minutes, the Yorkshiremen failed before the bowling of Hulme and David­ son, and the last nine wickets wero dismissed for an addition of only 73 runs. Derbyshire thus had a lead of seven runs and,thanks mainly to a brilliant performance of Sugg, their second total was an improvement on the first. Sugg was batting two hours and a quarter, and his 81 was an exceptionally good display of sound and confident cricket. Hall, who had been unwell on Tuesday afternoon, and obligdd to go home, it was feared would not be able to bat in Yorkshire’s innings. Still, though he was sufficiently recovered to go in yesterday morning on the fall of the third wicket, he was not able to save his side. Moorhouse helped him to add 48, but Derby­ shire always had a little in hand and in the end were left with a very creditable victory by 45 runs. Hulme, who did not play last year, reappeared in the Derbyshire eleven, and, as will be seen, with success, taking seven wickets for 98 runs. D e r b y sh ir e . Fir3t Innings. W.
