Cricket 1893

JDLY 27, 1898 OEIOKET: A WEEKLY EECOED OF THE GAME. 303 innings, which had extended ov r the hour and forty minutes’ of play on Thursday, was over for a total o f 119. The best individual perform ance was that of the Oxford captain, who was in an hour and ten minutes for his 30. Before the ground got difficult on Saturday morning, Bannerman and Giffen made the best use of their opportunity, and fifty was up with only Lyons out. As the sun dried the pitch, however, runs took a great deal of getting, and W oods’ bowling was so destructive that tne last eight batsm en only added 54. Going on at 43, W oods took six of the last nine wickets in fourteen overs, at a cost o f 26 runs, a fine per­ form ance. W ith a lead of twelve runs on the first innings the Somersetshire batsm en let out freely. In their attempt to make runs fast, however, they sacrificed their wickets and in a little over an hour the whole side were out for a small total of 64. Their rapid dismissal was in the main the work of Turner. This tim e his bowling was even more successful, and keaping up his end throughout he took seven wickets in 68 balls for only 26 runs. W ith 77 to win and an hour-and-ahalf in w hich to get them the Australians started badly, losing Lyons and Bannerman for only 29. By steady cricket, however, Trott and Giffen added 48, and though both were out before the end, their stand determ ined the result. As it was the Australians wo a with six wickets to spare.

On their form of this season the Middlesex eleven migh^, in full strength, have fairly teen expected to have rendered a good account of them ­ selves against the Australians this week at Lord’s. The interest in the m atch, however, was entirely destroyed by tbe action of some of the leaders of Middlesex cricket. The captain him self was play­ ing elsewhere, as was P. J. T. Henery, and as Stod­ dart had slightly injured him self at Manchester, and Foley and M cGregor were also both away Middlesex, it will te seen,were without four of their usual side. The players, too, who filled their places were only very moderate su stitutes, and alto­ gether the eleven that went into the field at Lord’s on Monday can hardly be said to have done Mid­ dlesex credit. Still, at the outset it looked as if there was an outside chance of a good match. The Australians, who went in first, made a sensational comm encem ent, Bannerman, Lyons and Giffen being all out to Hearne’ s bowliDg w ithout a run. T o make matters worse Gregory. M cLeod and Turner all failed to score, and when the ninth wicket fell the total was only 56. Had an easy chance of stum ping Blackham, too, been token the innings would have been m uch reduced. This m istake enabled Blackham and Trum ble to make a very useful stand, and the last wicket added 91, Trum ble taking out his bat for a well- played and mo3t useful score of 61. Hearne, w ho dismissed all the first seven batsmen, had a fine analysis, his wickets cost just over eight runs apiece. Of the first innings of Middlesex little can ^e said. The best stand in their case, too, was by the last two batsmen. Westand Hearne indeed put on 31 for the tenth wicket and thus just managed to save the follow-on. On Monday night the Austra'ians had an hour and a half left for batting, and in this time, thanks to the free hitting of Lyons and the good cricket of Trott, had made 144 for the loss of only three bats­ men. By Tuesday morning the wicket had re­ covered thoroughly, and Trott. Gregory and Tur­ ner were all seen to great advantage. Tiumble, who had helped to add 108, was out at 176, but Trott and Gregory put on 118 before they were parted, and later on Gregory and Turner also increased the score by 118. Trott was batting over two hours and a half for his H5, Gregory nearly three hours for his 111, and excepting a hard chance by Trott when he had m ade 81, neither made a real mistake. Later or Turner hit with g eat vigour, and his 65 not out was the result of ODly eighty minutes’ batting. With 527 to win Middlesex had of course no chance of making evjn a good match of it, tho igh the wicket was in excel­ lent order for i un-getting. Ford and Douglas be­ gan in very promising style, putting on 68 in forty minutes. After their separation, however, the end soon came, and as the lasc nine wickets just doubled ihe score the Australians had a very credit­ able and decisive victory by 390 runs. Trott’s leg breaks were very effective at the finish. His five w ickets only cost 33 runs. A u stralians . First Innings. Second Innings. Mr. A. C.

HANTS. Thanks mainly to the good batting of Capt. W ynyard and C. Robson, Hampshire m ade a very creditable draw in this m atch at Brighton at the end of last week, against alm ost the full strength of Sussex. Bean and Marlow made an exce'lent start, scoring 112 for the first wicket of Sussex. The highest run-getter in the match, though, was Capt. W ynyard, who in his two essays made 120 forH am pshire in each case by sound and attractive cricket. At the finish Ham pshire wanted 81 to win w ith five wickets to fall. S ussex .

YORKSH IRE v. W ARW ICKSHIRE. Excepting for the absence of Lord Hawke and F. S. Jackson, Yorkshire had its full side against Warwickshire in this match at Dewsbury at the end of last week. After dismissing Warwickshire for 118 they made 278, a result chiefly due to a fine innings of 110 not out by Peel. His innings, which lasted three hours and ten minutes, was absolutely w ithout a chance. In the second innings of W arwickshire, Lilley and Devey put on 93 for the eighth wicket. The cricket of both batsm en was equally spirited, and they got their runs in just under the hour—a capital perform ance. York­ shire won in the end by nine wickets. W ARWICK8HIRE. First Innings.
