Cricket 1893

898 CRICKET; A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. SEPT. 7, 1898 bidder proved to be the Belmont Club, the two games will be played on its grounds, in­ stead of on that of the Germantown C.C., which has been the scene of all former inter­ national matches. My information is to the effect that the American Press is already beginning to ’ ‘ boom ” the approaching visit of Mr. Victor Cohen and his fellow tourists from “ down under.” In any case, it will not be the fault of the International Match Com­ mittee, from what I know of them, if the Australians do not; have a good time of it in the States. M e n tio n of the Australians reminds me that in all probability the English portion of their tour will come to an end with the elose of their match against the South at Hastings thia week. The negotiations for a fixture at the Crystal Palace do not appear after all to have taken any definite shap9. After such a long and arduous season, no one will wonder that the various members of the team want a little leisure for final leave-taking3 of their English friends.

NOTTS. In the face of the excellent cricket the Notts Eleven have shown against previous Colonial teams, the visit o fth e Australians to Nottingham at the end of last week naturally attracted con­ siderable interest. The recent success o f th3 County eleven over Lancashire at Manchester, too, had raised hopes that Notts w ould again bo able to make at least a creditable fight even if it did not absolutely win. Feeling that the bowling was perhaps not quibe strong enough, the Notts executive gave a trial to R. Hard3taffe, of Kirkby- in-Ashfield, a left-hand medium pace bowler, engaged some tim e ago at the Oval, and this season with the Rawtenstall Club. On the side of the Australians Bannerm an was the only notable absentee, and his place was filled by Coningham , whose bowling, as will be seen, was o f som e us . In winning the toss the Australians were par­ ticularly fortunate, as the wicket at the com ­ m encem ent was in fine condition, and, as subse­ quent events proved, their good luck practically gave them the m atch. Lyons and Bruce, who opened the batting for the Australians, were both in a happy m ood for scoriug. Fifty were got in less than half-an-hour, and when Lyons was well caught at cover-point for a freely hit 69, 104 were up as the result of an hour’s batting. Bruce, who had been in an hour aud a half, was second out at 127, o f which he had made 53 without a mistake. After this th9 game for a tim e went rather in favour of the county, and when G raham was caught half the side were out with the total only 146. Gregory, however, found a reliable partner in Trumble, and by four o’clock the total had been raised to 215, with both batsmen still in. Thi3 proved to be the extent of the day’s cricket, as the game had to be suspended owing to a bad light, while just after rain fell so steadily as to stop play altogether. On Friday m orning the wicket had not recovered sufficiently to adm it of a resum p­ tion at the proper time. Moreover, when play did begin the pitch was fairly easy, so that the later batsm en on the Australian side were generally seen to advantage. Gregory and Trum ble added 10 more before the latter was out, but the form er was not dismissed till the total had reached 328. He had teen in altogether three hours and a half, and the only fault in his adm irable innings of 90 was a chance to m id-on when he had made 83 Towards the last M cLeod played good, steady cricket, and he was still in when the last wicket fell at 3.43. Flowers was the m ost successful bowler for Notts. H is five wickets cost twenty- one runs a-piece. By the time N otts went in on Friday afternoon the wicket had begun to help the bowlers materially, and Turner and Coning­ ham made such good use of the opportunity that in less than an hour and a half the County had been in and out. Only two of the side got double figures, and, as will be seen, Flowers and Gunn m ade 37 of 57 from the bat. Turner and Coning­ ham bowled unchanged. The form er was par­ ticularly successful, for his six wickets only cost 28 runs. Comm encing the second innings of Notts, who followed on in a m inority of 289, Gunn and Shrewsbury showed capital cricket, and when play ceased on Friday night 53 had been got with­ out the loss of a wicket. Unfortunately for the County, the bright sunshine cn the following m orning caused the pitch to be even worse than tl e previous day. As a consequence, though Shrews­ bury’s watchful cricket enabled him to stay for som e time, the m ajori.y o f the batsm en could do nothing with Turner’s bowling. Indeed, an hoi r and three-quarters sufficed to dismiss the whole side for an addition of 73 runs, so that the m atch ended in a m ost decisive victory for the Austra­ lians by an innings and 154 runs. H ow im portant a part Turner’s bowling played in their success his figures will show. Altogether he sent down 186 balls for 52 runs and 33 wickets. Of course the ground helped him considerably, but never­ theless it was quite an exceptional p e r fo rm in g . A u s t r a l ia n s . ...155 L . H. Bacmeister and Mr. J. J.
