JUNE 22,1899 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 215 SOM ERSETSH IRE v. YORKSH IRE. In view of the excellent all-round form shown by the Yorkshire eleven this season, it was essen­ tial that Somersetshire, to have a real chance at Taunton at the end of last week, should have a representative side. As it was, the a sence of the 1rothers Palairet and Mr. Challen deprived them of the services o f three of their m ost reliable batsm en, a triple loss w hich in a great measure influenced the result The Yorkshiremen, who lost the toss, were in the field just four hours on Thursday. In this tim e 227 runs were made, and so level was the run-getting of the Somersetshire eleven that ten got double figures, with N ichols’ 45 as the highest score. Vorkshire had an hour and ten minutes for batting on Thursday night, and in this tim e made 67 for the loss of W ardall’s wicket. Tunnicliffe and Mr. Sellers, who had som e luck, were responsible for these runs, and after their dismissal the following m orning Bean and Peel carried on the good work of scoring. The partnership for the second wicket had realised 103, but that of Brown and Peel was even more productive, the two batsm en adding 143 in an hour and three-quarters. Their cricket, too, was the best on the side. Brown was in twc hours for his 84, Peel ten minutes less for his 69, and in neither innings was there a chance. Somersetshire’s troubles were even then not over, for Ulyett and W ainwright hit with great vigour, and the 147 w hich form ed the outcom e of their partnership only occupied an hour and forty minutes. Both utilised every possible chance of scoring, but W ainwright’s was rather the better display, being absolutely free from a mistake. Going in against a heavy deficit of 242, Somersetshire only made a fairly good start, the end of the second day showing 63 runs at a cost of two good batsm en— M essrs.Hewett and Poynton. On Saturdaym om ing Brown and W ainwright bowled so well that only four o f the rem aining batsm en offered a lengthy resistance. The best stand was by Mr. Trask and Nichols, w ho put on 57 for the fourth wicket. The form er a second tim e played admirable cricket, and Bolus, a local player, who made his first appearance in this m atch, showed excellent defence. Still, with Tyler too i 1 to bat, the York­ shiremen always had a lot in hand, and they won in the end by an innings and 89 runs, their fifth consecutive victory. In the m atch Brown took seven wickets for 71 runs. S om ersetshire . First Innings. Second Innings. Mr. G.

The Lancashire eleven obtained their first success of the season at i rent Bridge on Saturday, when they gained a very creditable victory over N otts, with four wickets to spare. Notts, w ho won the toss, were in all the first day, and even then had only eight of their ten wickets down. Such a creditable result was n no way indicated by the early batting, w hich proved a disappointm ent, Gunn, Barnes, and Flowers being all out with the total only twenty-five. The main credit of an excellent performance rested with Shrewsbury and Daft. These two were together a little over three hours, for an addition of 189 runs to the score. Of these Daft only contributed 60, with two lives. If a trifle wearisome, still his defensive cricket was of great use to the side. Shrewsbury was sixth out at 271, of which his share was 148. Until he had got ninety his batting was absolutely without a fault, and although afterwards he oughti to have been out twice, as a whole his innings was in every way up to his best standard. Notts, who had made 302 overnight, only added 16 on Friday morning, so that Lancashire had to go in against a total of 318. Thanks to the generally good batting of the side they were able to head this by four runs. Of the eight batsmen who got double figures Sugg was far and away tbe mo3t successful. Going in first wicket down, he wa<? sixth out at 289, after an innings of three hours and a half. He hit with great power at tim es, but his hitting was tem ­ pered with sound defence, and although in the latter part he had som e luck it was a fine display of offensive and defensive cricket. The first two days had seen only one innings com pleted by each side, with a disadvantage of three runs to Notts, who had made one in theirsecond knocbwithoutloss Saturday’s cricket proved a rem arkable contrast. The wicket at one end had worn a bit, and Briggs utilised the spot so successfully that Notts, were all out for 92, of which Gunn, Shacklock, and Mee together were responsible for 73. With 89 to win. Lancashire began badly, so m uch eo that half the wickets were down with the total only 39. Mr. M cLaren, who had gone in first, was sixth out at 55,but Baker and C. Smith, of Little Lever, who was tried as a stum per in this m atch for the fir9t tim e by Lancashire, played with great pluck and judgm ent, and they were in when the winning hit was made. Briggs took six w ckets in Notts’ second innings at a cost of only 35 runs. N otts . First Innings. Second Innings. Shrewsbury, b Briggs ..148 st C.

M.C.C. & G. v. D ERBYSH IRE. After having all the worst o f the first part of the game at L ord’s on Thursday, the Marylebone eleven, not by any means a strong one, played up so well as to secure a creditable victory by 26 runs. Geeson’s fast bowling was the chief cause of the cheap dism issal of Derbyshire in the fourth innings. He got six of the best wickets at a cost o f oi ly 39 runs. M.C.C. First Innings.
