Cricket 1891

860 CRICKET: A WEEKLY EECORD OF THE GAME. AUG. 20, 1891 KENT v. LANCASHIRE. The Lancashire eleven, with all the best of the luck, were seen to great advantage in this match, begun at Gravesend on Monday, and were able to claim yesterday a hollow victory with an innings and 180 runs to spare. The choice of inniugs gave Lnnoashire the advan­ tage of going in first on an excellent wicket, and so fully did the earlier batsmen utilise their opportunities that when play ceased on Monday 347 ruus had been got with only half the side out. The credit of this excellent performance rested with two batsmen, Ward and Mr. McLaren. Starting with the score 71 for two wickets, they were not parted until the total had been raised to 288. In two hours and a half they had added 215 runs,and though neither innings was faultless, still the batting was of a very high order on the whole. Mr. Mc­ Laren was the first to leave,being caught when he had made 89. This took him two hours and a half to compile, and except for a life at cover-point, when he had sixty, there was no fault to be urged to his disadvantage. Ward stayed till the total had reached 326, and then was out through playing a ball of Wright into his wicket. His 185 was marred by three mis­ takes, the first in the slips at 34, another at 102 , the third at 160, both the last in the long field. Otherwise there was nothing like a chance, and his innings, which lasted four hours and a half, was a remarkable illustration of good timing and judicious hitting. Heavy rain overnight and in the early part of Tuesday prevented a resumption till 2.30 in the afternoon, and then Wright and Martin, in spite of bad fielding, disposed of the last half of the Lancashire eleven for an addition of 40 runs. The wicket was drying under a warm sun, by the time Kent’s turn came to bat, and so badly did the majority fare against the bowling of Briggs and Mold that in a little over an hour and a half the innings was over for 87, of which Mr. Rashleigh, George Hearne, and Wright had contributed 48. Though in the follow-on, too, Kent began badly in losing the two Hearnes for eleven, the free hitting of Messrs. Mar­ chant and Rashleigh at the close made mat­ ters look better, the two Amateurs knocking up 51 in just over half an hour, before the former was caught. Mr. Rashleigh, who was (not out) 35, added ten to his score yesterday, but Mold and Briggs proved too much for the other batsmen, and before luncheon time Lancashire had won by an innings and 180 runs. In the match Mold took nine Kent wickets for 111, Briggs also nine for 77 runs. L a n c a s h ir e . F. Sugg, b Martin ... 20 A. Ward, b Wright ...183 A. Smith, b A. Hearne .................12 Mr. A.

ESSEX The choice of inninga gave Derbyshire a great advantage in this match, begun at Derby on Monday* and yesterday the close of the game left them with an easy victory. The result was due to the good batting of Mr. Wright and Chatterton, and the effective bowling of Davidson and Hulme. While the wicket was easy the batsmen named put on 140 for the second wicket without a mistake. Essex, who had to bat with the ground all in favour of the bowlers on Tuesday, after being dismissed for 69, had made 6 for two wickets in their second innings when play ceased. Yesterday the pitch was not so difficult, and Mr. Owen and Carpenter were seen to great advantage, scoring between them 99 of 141 from the bat. Still Derby­ shire had such a lead on the first innings that the result was never in doubt, and they won with seven wickets to spare. Davidson took eleven Essex wickets for 57, Hulme seven for 73. Pickett’ s eight wickets for Essex cost 69 runs, D e r b y s h ir e . First Innings. W. Sugg, b Pickett... 0Hulme, b Pickett ... Mr. L. G.
