Cricket 1893

JUNE 22, 1898 CRICKET s A WEEKLY EECORD OF THE GAME. 219 W ALTER HEARNE. The force of cricket circumstances has fur­ nished something of an anomaly in the case of the brothers J.T.and Walter Hearne. Both born in Bucks, J.T. plays for Middlesex, and W al­ ter for Kent, with of course the requisite residential qualification in each case. Walter, who was born at Chalfont St. Giles, on June 15th, 1864, commenced his career as a profes­ sional cricketer in Surrey. His first engagement was with the Streatham C.C. in 1884, but he only remained there one summer. The next season saw him at Gravesend, and before the end of the year he played for the second eleven of Kent. Even then his form must have been satisfactory, for in 1886 he settled down on the St. Lawrence Ground at Canterbury, where he has remained ever since. By the summer of 1887 he had duly qualified for Kent, and on May 17 that year he played for the County against M.C.C. and G. at Lord’s. Though from 1888 to 1891 he played occasionally for Kent, it was not till last season that he became a regular member of the County eleven. His performances in 1892, too, fully justified his selection. In all he took 93 wickets for an average of eighteen runs, and he ended the season in fine style as the most successful of the Kent bowlers. This year he began in a very auspicious fashion, at Manchester, where he took fifteen wickets of Lancashire for 114 runs. An injury to bis hand justlately.however,has'compelled him to stand down in the last two matches, to the great detriment of the county. He bowls right hand medium pace with a high delivery and a break from the off, which is generally effective. He keeps a good length, too, as a rule, and using his head well, has in him all the elements of even greater success as a bowler. He is, we may add, a oousin of G.G., Frank, and Aleo Hearne, the Kent players. KENSINGTON v. CANE H IL L .—Played at Cane Hill on June 17. K ensington . F. M.

It was singularly unfortunate for Kent that it should only have teen ab.’e to have collected a weak eleven for this m atch, for the doutle reason that they were opposed by such a strong side, and that it was the opening fixture of the Gravesend week. The loss of Walter Hearne’s bowling was especially unlucky, and Middlesex, who went in fiist, though the wicket even at the outset played treacherously, made|a very respectable total o f -288, A good deal of the credit of this performance rested with Messrs. Stoddart and Webbe Tbe tw o amateurs took the edge off Kent’s bowling, and their stand, which produced 99 runs, for the first wicket was a very good performance considering that the pitch was not easy. Of the later batsmeD, Mr. Hale again ehap<d well, and Rawlin end Messrs. F ord and M cGregor all hit freely. The innings, which had lasted four hours and a half, ended at 5.30, and in the forty minutes tbat were left on M onday evening, Kent lost three wickets for 37. On Friday morning, Mr. Maichant hit in his m ost vigorous style, and his 57 were the result of less than an hour’s batting. Mr. Knowles, who played capital cricket, helped Mr. Marchant to add 68 in forty-five minutes, and a little latecM r. Fox scored freely. Just at the last, too, Martin hit with great resolution, and the stand by the last wicket was a very useful one, not only saving the follow on but adding 38 runs. Mr. W ebbe, who had injured his hand on the fitst day, so much that he was unable to field, could not go in till late in the second innings of Middlesex, and even then could not do him self justice. Still, the other batsmen, with two exceptions, could do nothing a.ain6t the bow nng of the two Hearnes and W right. The exceptions were Messrs. Ford and McGregor, who put on 47 while they were together. The form er nit with great vigour, and his 48 out of 91 from the bat was a fine di°play of plucky and fearless cricket. Kent had an impossibie task, as the wicket was, of making 160 runs for the fourth innings, J. T. Hearne and Rawlin, too, made the very test m e of their opportunities, and tbe bowling was so true that in an hour aud twenty minntea the m atch was over, leaving Middlesex 84 runs to the good. Hearne’s bowling had much to do with their success. In Kent’s two innings he took eleven wickets for 139 runs. Mr. G. ThorntoD, of the Hampstead Club, who played a few years back for Yorkshire, and Mr. Hargreaves made their first appearance for Middlesex and Kent respectively in thi3 m atcb. M id d l e s e x .
