Cricket 1891

CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OP THE GAME. JUNE 25,1891 as well aa a fine field at leg, and an excellent judge of a run as well as of the game generally. After the death of William Clarke, he undertook the man­ agement of the All England Eleven, and his influence was so generally recognised that he was able to collect a strong com­ bination to visit Canada in 1859—the first tour of the kind—as well as five years later to conduct the second team of English cricketers to Australia. His benefit, match—North v. South— on the Trent Bridge Ground, Not­ tingham, in 1878, was very successful. In throwing the ball, too, Parr was a great adept, and on one occasion in June, 1846, he beat a soldier named Parkinson, of Bunney Parr, easily, with a throw of 109 yards 2 feet, to win awager of five pounds made by Sir Frederick Bathurst. Born at Badcliffe-on-Trent, his connection with that village remained unbroken to the last, and he died there on Tuesday last.

Though the rain on Tuesday interfered to some extent with its complete success, it is gratifying to be able to record that Hall’s benefit match, begun on Monday at Sheffield, will be, on the whole, a remunerative one. It is eighteen years since Hall made his first appearanoe in the Yorkshire eleven, and though it was not until five years later that he became a regular member of the county team, since that time he has not only been one of the mainstays of the side, but won the universal respect of everyone with whom he has been associated as a cricketer. Last summer, the same content was set apart for his use, but continuous rain on the first two days utterly ruined the game, and under these circumstances the Yorkshire Committee decided to regard that as one of their own fix­ tures, and give him another match. Surrey, who it may be remarked have only twice lost the toss out of eleven games, were again successful in getting first innings, and a good display of batting by Abel and Mr. Shuter produced 34 runs for the first wicket. Then a prolonged stand was made by the two Reads on the fall of the third batsman. At lunch­ time, when they were each not out 83, they hadraisedthescore to 106, and afterW. W. had been sent back for an excellent 41, Maurice continued to hit away. Henderson gave him excellent assistance, but Read always soored the faster, and, strangely enough, his partnership with his namesake and with Hen­ derson each produced 82 runs. His first three-figure innings ol the present season lasted threehours and three-quarters, andcon­ tained onlv one ohance, a difficult one to point when he had got 55. His hitting all-round the wicket was extremely brilliant, and as he was eighth out at 279, it will be seen he scored 185 out of 245 while he was in. Notwithstanding the long innings, Peel came out with an excellent analysis, and as will be seen he took seven of the ten wickets at an average of just over fifteen runs. The best feature of Yorkshire’s out-cricket, however, was the exceptionally fine wicket-keeping of Hunter. Altogether he assisted in the dismissal of six batsmen, five caught and one stumped, and he gave no byes till the score had reaohed 214. Hall and Wardall had at the close of Monday’s play scored 26 without the loss of a wicket, and they added eleven more onTuesdaymorningbefore the latterwas bowled. After this, though, things went for a time very badly for Yorkshire, and with half the wickets down for 90 a small total seemed likely. As it was, however, Ulyett’s brilliant cricket amply compensated for the other failures. Never losing the smallest chance of hitting, he still played with great judgment, andwhenrain stoppedplay on Tues­ day he had scored81 out of 139 in two hours without a chance. After the heavy rain of the previous afternoon, the chances were all in favour of a victory for Surrey yesterday, and the Yorkshire batsmen found themselves so heavily handicapped bythe state of the wicket that the result of the game was really never in doubt. With the addition of 4 runs, York­ shire’s first innings came to a close, leaving Ulyett, who had been in altogether two hours and twenty minutes, without a mistake, to carryout his bat for 84, nearly one half of the total. Wanting 115 to avert an innings defeat, as the wicket played Yorkshire’s chance of saving the game was very small. Chiefly throughUlyett’s hitting thirty-onewere scored in a little over half-an-hour. After this Sharpe’s bowling proved irresistible, and at the luncheon hour seven batsmen had been dismissed for an aggregate of 76. On the re­ sumption the end soon came, and as the innings closed for an addition of 13, Surrey were left with a decisive victory by an innings and 27 runs. In thematch, altogether, Sharpe took ten wioketa for 94, Lohmann eight for 99 runs. Lord Hawke and Brown were unable to play for Yorkshire, and in their absenceplaces were found for Mr. B. C. Bolton and Mounsey, of the Sheffield Heeley Club, who made his first appearance for the County. S u r r e y . Mr. J.
