Cricket 1893

JUNE 8, 1893 (JRICKET s A WEEKLY EECOED Otf THE GAME, 185 NOTTS v. SOMERSETSHIRE. Considering that they were without Messrs. Challen and the three Oxonians, the brothers Palairet and V. T. Hill, the Somersetshire eleven did well to mike such a good show even in the earlier stages of this match at Trent Bridge, Nottingham, at the end of laBt week. Notts, who went in first, were unfortunate in losing Shrews­ bury, bowled by Tyler, in the third over. Gunn and Barnes, however, added 57 while they were together, and Flowers and Mr. Dixon were even more successful, putting on 89 in an hour and ten minutes, ty attractive cricket. The fall of the fourth wicket was the prelude to a different state of things, and Mr. Woods and Nichols bowled with such effect that the remaining batsmen only added 45 runs. Somersetshire’s innings was opened by some vigorous hitting of the Captain. Some steady cricket followed his dismissal, and by the end of the day 123 runs had been scored as the result of two hours and ten minutes’ play. Balf the side were then out, and as the outstanding wickets on Friday morning only added 34, the innings closed for 160, or 42 behind. The early part of Notts’ second innings was in no way suggestive of a large total, as in just over half an hour Wharmby, Shrewsbury, Flowers, and Barnes ■were all dismissed for 28. Any hopes of a short outing for Somersetshire were, however, soon set at rest. Gunn found a useful partner in Daft, who helped to put on 60, and, on the latter’s dismissal, in Mr. Dixon. Gunn was himself out at 142, after an innings of-two hours and twenty minutes’ dura­ tion. Except for a chance when he had made 40, his 71 was free from a blemish. Still later, Atte­ well scored at a great rate off the worn-out bowl­ ing of Someiset. and his hitting was so powerful and well-timed that in an hour and ten minutes the score was increased by 136 runs. Attewell ought to have been caught at slip when he had got 36, otherwise his 78 was a thoroughly deserving display of free cricket. With 321 to win, Somer­ setshire practically lost any outside chance they might have had on Friday night in losing four of their test bat&men for 52 runs. On Saturday morning the match was soon over Still, the play was memorable for a remarkable performance by Shacklock. With four successive balls he dismissed Messrs. Spurway, Newton, Trask, and Gibbs, and as Tyler and Mr. Spencer only gave Nichols slight assistance, Notts, in the end, had an easy victory by 225 runs. N otts . First Innings.

Although they had all the worst of the first half of this match, begun at Lord’s on Thursday, the Middlesex eleven played up so well that thematcn was only lost by a very narrow margin. The bat­ ting of the Middlesex eleven.who won the toss, on the first day was disappointing. The innings only lasted two hours and forty minutes, and the one really noteworthy feature was the stand 01 Mr. Scett and Rawlin, who put on 71 in a little under an hour for the sixth wicket. Yorkshire had a little over two hours and a half for batting on Thursday afternoon, and in that time scored 159 with only four batsmen out. Of these Mr. Sellers, who was not out, had scored 90, which he in­ creased by 15 on the following morning. Out ol 179 made whilst he was in, his Bhare was 105, and dur­ ing the three hours he was at the wickets,there was no mistake.Towards thelfinish of the innmgsUlyett and Moorhouse showed some really good cricket, and of the83 runs which were the outcome of this partnership, the former by good hitting contri­ buted 53. Middlesex began their second innings under a great disadvantage in a minority of 135 runs, and with Mr. Webbe out at 27. their chances were considerably reduced. Mr. Stodd»rt, how­ ever, was in his very best vein for run getting and in a littfle over an hour and a half he had made 88 of 114 runs. There was only one flaw to_ a brilliant display,in a chance when he had got six. Mr. Scott, who was batting two hours and ten minutes, again played capital cricket, and Mr. Foley,who had lent useful help, was not out at the end of the day with 53 to his credit in a total of 250. Twenty were added on Saturday morning, and Mr. Foley was left to carry out his bat for a very useful, if not faultless, score of 60. Though they only wanted 115 to win, Yorkshire started badly, losing three good wickets for 23. Some good cricket by Tunnicliffe and Brown improved Yorkshire’s position materially and at lunch time the score was 87 with six wickets still to fall. On tbe resumption Hea*ne bowled with great success, and with Peel, Wainwright, and Brown out for an addition of 17 it seemed as if the odds were slightly in favour of Middlesex. As it was, Ulyett and Moorhouse, as in the firsts innings, played with great pluck at the crisis, and a mistake at point.which gaveUlyett a life at 127,had an appre ciable effect on the result. Favoured by this piece of luck, Ulyett helped to knock off the remaining runs and Yorkshire won a very interesting match with three wickets in band. Y orkshire . M idd lesex . First Innings. Mr. A.
