Cricket 1893

148 ■CRICKET t A WEEKLY RECORD OP THE GAME, MAY 25, 1893 CRICKET AT OXFORD . OXFORD UN IVERSITY v. M r . A. J. W EB BE’S ELEVEN . Except that Mr. J. J. Ferris and Briggs took the places of Mr J. W . Trum ble and J. T. Hearne, and that Mr. C. I. Thornton was not playing, the side which Mr. W ebbe took to Oxford to oppose the University on Thursday was the same as that which was lreaten by Cambridge. The heavy rain­ fall of the previous day had m ade the wicket very slow at the outset,and with more than one interrup­ tion from showers the game progressed so slowly that the University were still in at the end of the first day, having scored 270 with three wiekets to fall. Favoured with an easy wicket, while the bowlers were under the disadvantage o f a wet ball, Messrs. Bathurst, W ood, and 'W ilson all scored freely on Friday, with the result that 57 were added in half an hour. In all nine o f the Univer­ sity eleven pot double figures, and though the cricket was slow their total of 321 was, with the wicket generally far from easy, a creditable perform ance. Friday afternoon was occupied with Mr. Webbe’s first innings, which began at one and closed at a quarter past five o ’clock. A t the start Mr.W ood’s lobs were attended wiih great suc­ cess, and the total on the fall o f the eighth wicket was only 126. So far the m ost noticeable feature had been the vigorous hitting o f Mr. Henery, who m ade 4l of 48 while he was in. A determined stand by Messrs. Ferris and Philipson, who put on 93 for the ninth w icket, however, reduced the advantage Oxford seemed at one tim e likely to gain, and at the end of an innings they } ad a lead o f exactly a hundred runs. Showers kept the wicket fairly easy on Saturday,and Oxford did very well to get rid of five of the m ost dangerous bats­ men on Mr. Webbe’s sijle for an aggregate o f 95 rnns. There, thougb, their success received a check, and Briggs and Mr. Ferris after a tim e got the measure of the Oxford bowling so thoroughly that all chance of a victory for the University was destroyed. Briggs ought to have been caught and bow led by the Oxford captain early in his innings, but after this he hit with brilliant results, scoring 88 out of 154 in a little over an hour and a half without another chance. Mr. Hornsby, who fol­ lowed, made 45, including tw o big hits for six, out of 65 in less than forty minutes, and was then caught in the long field. All this tim e Mr. Ferris had been batting w ith great judgm ent, and when the stumps were finally drawn he was still in. This tim e he was at the wickets two hours and fifty minutes, and hia 79 was free from a mistake. His batting indeed was the m ost noteworthy feature o f the m atch. Altogether he scored 114, without being once out. At the finish Mr. Webbe’s Eleven were 218 to the good, with three wickets ptill to fall. O xford U n iversity . Mr. R. C. N.

Abel, whose eyesight had troubled him a good deal during the winter, was able to take bis place in the eleven for the first tim e this season, and Mr. Read, who had stood out of the match against Essex earlier in the week, was again in evidence. Rain had fallen heavily in Derby on Weduesday night, and though they won the toss the hom e team ,who still were without Hall and Hulme, were only able to score 112 in an innings of two hours and a half duration. Mr. W right and Chatterton alone withstood the bowling of Richirdson with any degree of success, and Davidson was the only other batsman to get double figures, and the tail collapsed so badly that the last five wickets fell in forty minutes for an addition of only sixteen runs. Richardson followed up his excellent record in the earlier m atches with another fine bowling per­ form ance. He took eight of the ten Derbyshire wickets, and at a cost of only four and a half runs a piece. Though Abel and H enderson both failed, Mi. Shutcr, Hayward, Mr. Read, and Baldwin all scored freely off the Derbyshire bowlers, and at the end of the first day Surrey's score showed 144, or 32 on, with only four wickets down. Rain on Friday interrupted the continuation of Surrey’s batting, which was not over till past four o’clock. Mr. Read and Baldwin were both again seen to great advantage, but the best feature of the latter part of the innings was the free hitting of the last two batsmen, Brockwell and Richardson, who knocked up 64 for the tenth wicket. Following on in a minority o f 1(8, Derbyshire had an alm ost im possible task before them. Thanks to the good cricket of Bagshaw, Chatterton, and Btorer, 110 of these had been scored on Friday night at a cost of only four batsmen. On Saturday morning, how­ ever, the game went agaiu all in favour of Surrey, and the six outstanding wickets only added 66. Surrey consequently only had eleven to get to win, and as Mr. Shuter and Abel soon got these Derbyshire were beaten by ten wickets. Richard­ son in the m atch took twelve w ickets for 96 runs.
