Cricket 1892

210 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME, JUNE 16, 1692 SURREY v. MIDDLESEX. The consistent success of the Middlesex eleven in their earlier matches lent unusual interest to their first match of the season with Surrey, commenced at the Oval on Monday last. Surrey’s double failure in the previous week, too, gave ad­ ditional colour to the belief that Middlesex had this time a really good chance, and hence, in spite of a bitterly cold day, the spectators turned up in great force. Neither side had quite its full strength, as Middlesex was without Mr. E. A. Nepean, and Surrey without Wood, whose place at the wicket was taken by Mr. A. F. Clarke. For the second time in succession, Mr. Shuter lost the toss, and Surrey had to take the field. First innings, though, as it proved, was rather a disadvantage to Middlesex. After the rain of Sunday the wicket bumped at times considerably, and Lockwood keepmg rather short, proved so effective that in an hour and three quarters Middlesex were out for a small total of 75. Lockwood took six of the ten wickets at a cost of only 32 rune, while Lohmann got the last four for 29. When Surrey went in Abel set the side a good example by his sound and correct cricket. Mr. Shuter, Lockwood, Mr. Key, and Brockwell were seen to advantage, and ulti­ mately Surrey’s innings, which had lasted three hours and a quarter, reached a total of 210 . Going in on Monday evening. with 135 against them, Messrs. Webbe aud Stoddart made a very different show. In half-an-hour the former scored 40, and when play ceased 53 of the 135 had been wiped off without the loss of a wicket. On Tues­ day morning runs came slowly at the outset, so much so that only thirty-two had been added in eighty minutes, when Mr. Webbe was bowled. On Mr. Scott’s arrival the score rose much faster, and Mr. Stcddart playing in his very best style, the hundred was soon passed. Mr. Scott was first to leave, cau.ht at third man, and Mr. Stoddart followed, out in the same place. He had made ninety-one out of 157 by the best cricket. Though at times he showed great care he loat no opportunity of hitting a loose ball. He never seemed in trouble with the bowling, and with the exception of a rather hard left- handed catch at mid off there was no mistake to detract from an exceptionally fine display. After his retirement things went badly with Middlesex, and when the ninth wicket fell at 231, or only 96 on, Surrey seemed to have an easy win before them. Mr. Thesiger, who had gone in fifth wicket down, however, found a very useful partner in Hearne, and both batemen hit so well that in fifty minutes 75 runs were added. At last Hearne was run out, leaving Mr. Thesiper to carry out bis bat for 60, a praiseworthy exhibition of free and confident cricket. Hearne played with great pluck and judgment, and his batting cannot be over­ praised. He gave a rather hard chance to mid on, but this was his only mistake. With 172 to win, Surrey did not seem to have anything of a certainty for a fourth innings against the bowling of Hearne, Phillips, and Rawlin. Mr. Read, who went in with Abel, however, soon settled down into his old and best form and the issue was soon placed beyond doubt. Abel, too, played fine cricket, and at the end of an hour and twenty-five minutep, when Abel was out, 117 had been got. Mr. Read was bowled at 140, but by this time the Ruccees had been assured, and Lohmann and Read soon knocked off the remaining runs, leaving Surrey iu possession of an easy victory by tight wickets. Mr. Read’s 75 was an innings quite up to his be t reputation. Directly he settled down he made runs fast all round the wicket. After his early failures h is brilliant cricket on Tuesday will give unquali­ fied satisfaction. Surrey’s performance at the finish was one deserving of the highest praise. The 172 runs were got in exactly two hours, and in all, on Tuesday, 4*5 runs were got, for the loss of twelve wickets, in five hours and twenty minutes of actual play. Mr. J. R. Head, who was in the Clifton College eleven of 1886, made his first appearance for Middlesex. S u r r e y .— First Innings. M id d l e s e x . First Innings. Mr. A. E.
