Cricket 1892

14G CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. MAX 26, 1892 when that dangerous batsman was well set. Mr. Callaway assisted New South Wales, too, in every match last season. He took six wickets for 95 runs in South Australia’s long innings of 330, and six for 85 against Victoria. In the return match played by the Eng­ lishmen against New South Wales, he scored 19 not out and 14, and in the visitors’ big innings of 404, clean bowled W. G. Grace, Abel, Peel, and Sharpe. He was chosen to represent Australia in the third great fixture, but was called away from Adelaide just before the match, owing to the illness of his father. The value of his all-round cricket for his colony may be gathered from the fact that he came out at the top of the bowling averages, and only three players managed to top his batting figures. Mr. Callaway bowls fast with an easy action, and keeps an excellent length. He is a free bat, and hits with plenty of power. A brilliant field and sure catch, with plenty of pluck, he fills any position with credit. He is 5ft. llin. in height, and 12st. 41bs. in weight. CLAPTON v.

More than ordinary interest was attached to the above match, begun at Old Trafford on Thursday, from the fact that it- was the opening lixture of first class County cricket. In tbe absence of Messrs. Newham and C. A. Smith, Sussex Rave a trial to Parris and Guttridge, the latter of whom, a native of Notts, has just qualified by residence. With the exception of the absence of Mr. A. C. McLaren Lancashire had its usual side. The wicket, owing to heavy rain, was at the outset all in favour of the bowlers, and in the five hours over which play exten ed on the first day nearly two innings and a half were completed. The excellent bowling of Tate was the cause of Lancashire’s dismissal for a very small score of 55. He bowled throughout and took six wickets at a cost of only three and a-half runs apiece. Bean batted steadily when Sussex went in. but Guttridge saved his side from a complete collapse. He hit out n resolute style and his innings of 33 was the highest on his side. When Lanca­ shire went in a second time to bat. Ward and Sugg adopted forcing tactics and their brilliant hittin* chang« d the whole aspect of the game. In a little under the hour they scored S7 runs, at which total Sag" was splendidly caught by Mr. Wilson in the long-field. Ward soon followed, caught out. Each batsman gave a chance—Sugg at 29, Ward at 47— butthese were the only faults in their two valuable contributions. Humphreys got rid of both bats men, and he dismissed Smith and Mr. Kemp before play ceased for the day with the total 131. Heavy rain had fallen during Thursday night, and a resumption was not possible until twenty minutea to three o’clock on the following day. With the wi. ket fairly easy for a time the Lancashire tail f-howe>i up well, and iu a little over an hour seventy- five inns were added. Humphieys again met with sncct s^. Although at times punished freely, he came out with an excellent amlysis, having t-ken eight wickets for 89 runs. With 190 to win Sussex, o q a drying wicket, had not even an outside chance. Bean and Marlow made the best of their time before the ground had got very difficult, and put on 33 runs for the first wicket in fitty minutes. After Bean’s departure, Watson and Mold c*rricd all before them. Marlow, indeed, was the o ily man to make a lengthy stay. Going in first lie was fifth out, having been batting an hour and thirty-five minutes for 18 out of 54. The last nine wickets fell for an addition of 44, and Lan­ cashire won by 112 runs. Watson, who bowled throughout the match, took ten wickets at a cost coat of less than six runs apiece. Mold, it will be seen, too, bowled with great success, taking eight wickets for 53 runs.

T. nearne at the close, M.C.C. gainod its fifth successive win of the season on Saturday, at Lord’s, after an exciting finish. While the Maryle- bone Club was able to put a fairly strong eleven into the field, Notts was without Gunn, whose batting was greatly missed, mere especially in the later stages of the game. The match with Maryle- bone usually affords a chance for a trial of some of the more promising youngsters of Notts, and places were found for Wilkinson (who had shown good all round cricket in the Notts Colts’ match, as well as subsequently against the Yorkshire Colts), Armstrong, and Moss. Rain caused a long interval in the early part of Thursday, and, in fact, the play on the opening day was limited to three hours and three-quarters. Although the conditions were certainly not in favour of the bowlers, the cricket was far from interesting. Only 141 runs were scored in all during the day for the loss of nine wickets, and of these the last sixty were got in just over an hour. Mr. Murdoch and Chatter- ton were in over an hour and a half for 48, and Mr. Wright’s 23 occupied him an hour and forty minutes. The only relief to the generally dull cricket was some free hitting by J. T. Hearne towards the finish. Going in on Friday morning against a total of 145, Notts made a good start. Barnes, who is in fine form this season, was again seen to great advantage. In an hour and a half he made 51 out of 57 scored while he was in, and his runs were got without anything like a mistake. When the fifth wicket fell the score was 144, but the tail lent little help, and in the end Notts was left with a lead of 42 runs. In their second innings M.C.C. made a very bad start, losing four of their best batsmen for only 25 runs. Chatterton, however, found a useful partner in Mr. Gibson, and they were still in at the end of the day, having added 51 runs. On Saturday neither added to his over-night total, and though the later batsmen hit out freely, the total only reached 146. Chatterton’s 44 was an admirable display of cricket, without a fault. Notts were left with only 105 to win, and though the wicket had begun to wear over-night, the general opinion was in their favour. The early part of the innings, though, was all against them, and J. T. Hearne bowled with such success that six of the test batsmen were out for only 47 runs. Some good cricket by Attewell and Mr. Redgate raised the hopes of the County considerably, and 26were added before Attewell (who had made 20 of the number) was finally caught and bowled by Chatterton. Mr. Redgate and Sherwin, the last batsman, made a short stand, but when the latter was bowled the total was only 90, so that M.C.C. won a very creditable victory by 14 runs. J. T. Hearne’s bowling was the chief factor in this success. He took nine (seven of them bowled) of the ten wickets, at a cost of only 41runs. M.C.C. First Innings. Second Inning3.
