C onsidering the a m ou n t o f good m aterial to be fou n d in the County elevens regarded as second- class th e fixture arranged between an eleven selected from them and the A ustralian team for the first h a lf of the w eek at B irm ingham w as a happy thought. U n fortunately, the best side cou ld n ot be p la ced in the field to oppose the A ustralians, w ith Essex and L eicestersh ire both unrepresented, though Mead, w ho had been selected, w as unable to play at th e last m om ent, ow ing to illness. R ain had fallen heavily on M on­ day m orning, and B ainbridge, w ho captain ed the E nglish eleven, w as rath er dou btfu l w hat to do w ith th e ch oice o f innings. A s it wap, w hile the w icket w as wet and easy he stayed w ith Q uaife, and m ainly {through th e excellent crick et o f the latter 58 w ere got fo r the first wicket. T hough eighty w as up w ith only on e batsm an out, George G iffen, who cam e on at 44, b ow led w ith great ju d gm en t and effect, and it was m ainly to his ow n bow ling, w hich resulted in the dism issal o f seven o f the ten w ickets, that th e total only reached 147. W hen the A ustralians w ent in H ulm e and Davidson w ere bo successful that L yons, B annerm an and Giffen w ere all out with the total only seven. A useful stand by T rott and G regoiy added forty, bui a fter the pair had been separaied, G raham quickly follow ed.and on M onday night the score w as 56 for six w ickets, Rain prevented any play on T uesday till a fter three o ’clock , and the d a y ’s cricket w as practicallyconfined to about tw o hours and a half. B ruce played very fine cricket on the heavy pitch, and his 51, w hich took him an hour and a quarter, w as an adm irable display o f b attin g under great disadvantages. W ith a lead o f four runs the C ounties m ade, as in the first innings, a good start, due chiefly to Q uaife, w ho again played very g ood and attractive cricket. A s the w icket began to dry, how ever, the bow ling o f T ru m ble and Turner told w ith great effect, and excepting that C hatterton played a hitting gam e, there w as nothing of in terest in the batting before play ceased on T uesday night, w hen the score was ninety-three fo r five w ickets. Yesterday, C hatterton and D avidson raised th e score to 135 before th e form er w as throw n out, and after D avidson ’s dism issal a t 151 the innings cam e to a speedy close for an addition of tw o runs. H aving 159 to win the A ustralians m ade an iLauspicious com m encem ent, B ru ce, T rott and Bannerm an b eing ou t w ith the score only 23. G eorge Giffen and L yons, how ever, gave a capital display of crick et, and 68 had been added in forty-five m inu tes, w hen the form er w as o u t . L yons, w ho had throughout played in his very best style, saw G regory retire, and w as h im self out b efore the m a tch w as w on. It w as left to G raham and M cL eod to get the la st few runs, and victory eventually rested v. ith th e Australians, w ith fou r w ickets to spare. S econd C la ss C o u n ties . F irst Innings.

M ID D L E S X v. L A N C A S H IR E . C onsidering th e excellent cricket b oth counties have b en show ing, and the chance that L an ca ­ shire m ight after all m ake a b old bid w ith York­ shire fo r the prem iership, m ore than ordinary in terest w as attach ed to this m atch, begun at L o rd ’s on M onday. A s it happened, neither side h ad quite its fu ll strength, as w hile O ’B rien w as absent from M iddlesex, L an cash ire suffered heavily b y the loss o f Sugg, w ho had sprained his leg. T hough M iddlesex w on the toss, the early rain had apparen tly affected the wicfcet a little at the outset, and w ith Stoddart, S cott, and W eb be ou t for 33, th e chances of a b ig score seem ed anything b u t h opeful. T he later batsm en, how ever, fully aton ed fo r any sh ortcom in gs of their predecessors. F oley w as the first to offer any resistance to the L ancashire bowlers, and later R aw lin, F ord, L u ca s, and H aym an w ere all seen to advantage. T he b est display w as that o f the left-handed batsm an F ord. W h ile he w as in 147 runs w ere added, and o f this sum h is share was 81. M oreover, during the hour and fifty m inutes h e w as in he played in fine style, w ith ou t a m is­ take. A fter their lon g outing L an cash ire fared bad ly w ith the bat, and in the last quarter o f an h ou r on M onday lost M cLaren and F . W a rd fo r 14 runs. On T uesday m orning A lbert W a rd was m issed at the w icket, but this w as he on ly fault to be fou n d w ith h is innings, w h ich lasted tw o hours and a quarter. Briggs and T insley alone, o f the other batsm en, got dou ble figures, and H ea m e and F ord bow led w ith such success, that w hen the tenth w icket fell the total w as only 152. H earne had apparently fou n d a sp ot w hich he utilised to g ood purpose. B oth F ord and he w ere very effective, and the latter took three w ickets in eight overs fo r only 10 runs. F ollow ing on in a m inority o f 152 M cL aren and the tw o W a rd s played so plu ck ily that 120 w as u p w ith onlv one w icket dow n. T h e bredit o f this achievem ent w as due entirely to the fine cricket o f M cL aren . He has rarely, indeed, been seen to better advantage and his innings o f 82, w hich only occu pied him an h ou r and a half, w as, as far as w e cou ld see, free from a fault. L a ter on the light b ecam e so bad, th a t play had to be suspended fo r h a lf an hour, and b y the end o f th e day six w ickets w ere dow n w ith the total on ly increased to 164. O w ing to heavy rain the gam e cou ld n ot b e resum ed till h alf-past four o ‘clo ck yesterday afternoon, and th en it w as n ot easy fo r the bow lers to get a fo o t­ h old. Still, the in nings soon cam e to an end, and as the fou r rem aining w ickets added on ly 16 runs, M iddlesex w ere left w ith 29 to w in. T h is sm all sum , how ever, co st them three g ood batsm en, all from M old’s bow lin g, so that L ancashire w ere b eaten b y seven w ickets. M id d l e s e x . F irst Innings. M r. A. E .
