Cricket 1891

SEPT. 17, 1891 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 421 GENTLEMEN v. PLAYERS. The fine weather which proved fcuch marked characteristic of the opening match of the Festival, did not altogether favour the Hastings Ground with its presence on the occasion of the second fixture, commenced on Monday. The sky was much overcast during a great proportion of Monday’s play. As the Gentlemen succeeded in winning the toss, they might fairly have been expected to make a lot of runs, but such proved not to be the case. It should be stated that Mr. S. M. J. Woods was unable to play for the Gentlemen, and that Mr. Ferris, owing to a blow on the knee, was not able to do himself justice. The first ball of the match dismissed Mr. Stoddart, and almost immediately afterwards a smart shower drove the players to shelter. On resuming the ball kicked a good deal, and in a comparatively short space of time Peel and Lohmann brought about the dismissal of five of the best batsmen for 25 runs. Messrs. Murdoch and A. J. Hill made a slight stand, but the former was cleverly run out, and, with several other disasters, eight wickets were down at lunch time for 37. Subsequently the light grew •worse, and though Mr. Herbert Pigg, the Hertfordshire cricketer, made several good hits, the total only reached 6 S. The spectators had been a good deal disappointed by this poor show, but they were treated to some free and rapid hitting when the Players went in. W ith Mr. Ferris unable to bowl, too, the attack was only of a weak description, and Abel and Ulyett hit up 39 for the first wicket. The Surrey player was then sent back, but Ulyett continued to hit away brilliantly, completing his 50 with the full total 88 . When stumps were drawn on Monday, 117 had been got for the loss of Abel’s wicket only. On Wednesday, Ulyett was dismissed without further addition to his extremely brilliant score of 6 -*. The wicket had now fully recovered, however, and a splendid batting display was given by Gunn and, in a lesser degree, by Chatterton. This pair, by some of the finest hitting seen this season, added 165 runs in two hours and a quarter for the fourth wicket. The Derbyshire professional’s 58 included not the slightest chance, bat his performance was of course overshadowed by that of Gunn. Going in on Monday evening with the total 39 for one wicket, the great batsman was seventh out at 344, having been in four hours without making a single mistake. His contribution was 169, and his last 69 were got in sixty-five minutes. Mr. Ferris felt sufficiently himself to bowl, and he came out with very good figures, five wickets for 87 runs. Nine of the Gentlemen went on to bowl, and their fielding was excellent. Against the Players’ big total of 390, the Amateurs had on Tuesday evening scored 2 without loss. As was foreshadowed by the state of the game when play was resumed yesterday morning, the match ended in an easy win for the Players. Mr. Pigg not being well enough to continue batting, Mr. Grace was Mr. Smith’s partner on the commencement. Martin and Attewell shared the bowling, and they fared so well that three wickets, including that of Mr. Grace, were secured for an addition of only twenty-nine runs. Messrs. Stoddart and Head, however, were not so easily separated, and while they y, were together runs came freely. Mr. Smith also lent Mr. Read valuable assistance on Mr. Stoddart’s retirement, and the Surrey ama­ teur later on found another useful partner in Mr! Murdoch. Several changes of bowling were tried while the two last named were to­ gether,but without effect, the score at luncheon time showing 139 for fi \e wickets with both G. batsmen notout. On the resumption Lohmann and Martin bowled, and the latter was lucky enough to get Mr. Bead caught at the wicket for an addition of 9 runs. The outgoing batsman had played in . his best style for 77, the highest innings he has played in first-class cricket this season. Mr. Read was at the wickets an hour and a-half, and during that time gave no chance that we saw. Mr. Murdoch saw Messrs. Ferris, Hill, and Kemble all retire before the innings closed carrying out his bat for an exceedingly well- played score of 33. The match was over by a quarter to fpur o’clock, Jeaving the Professionals with an easy victory by an innings and 128 runs. G e n tl e m e n . First Innings.
