Cricket 1894

MAY 17, 1894 PICKET § A WEEKLY BEC0B1? OF THE GAME0 185 NOTTS y . SURREY. With both Gunn and Shrewsbury away, the batting of Notts was so much weakened as to reduoe their chances for the Surrey match at Nottingham, on Monday, very materially. It was hoped that Gunn, who had been suffering from influenza, would be able to play, but as he had not thoroughly recovered, he was well advised to stand down. The home team had choice of innings, but, as the wicket was, did not profit much by their luck in the toss. The wioket was still suffer­ ing from the overnight rain, and Richardson bowled with such success that, though the innings lasted two hours and forty minutes, the result was only a total of 98. Surrey, in their turn, were seen to much better advan­ tage with the bat. Hayward made 41 of the first 57, by capital cricket, and Abel, who started the batting with him, playedwith such care that when play ceased on Monday night he was still in with 38 of 125 for four wicket* to his credit. On Tuesday morning Smith was bowled without the addition of a run and half the side were out with only 27 on Abel, however, continued to play excellent cricket, and with useful assistance from Mr. Key, Brockwell, and Mr. Jephson the ultimate result was a creditable total of 242, Abel’s 63 was an innings of the greatest v»lue to his side. He was batting altogether for thre lours and three-quarters, and though at first he showed great care the latter part of his batting was by no means unattractive. In a minority of 144 Notts made a much better start in their second innings, and 60 was up with only one batsman (Mr. Wright) out. After the dismissal of Mr. Dixon and Flowers, however, no one except Baguley offered any serious resistance to Richardsonand Lockwood. The former in particular was irresistible, and by half past five o’clock on Tuesday •-urrey had won by an innings and nine runs Richardson’s bowling was quite the feature of the match. Altogether he took thirteen wickets at a cost of just over seven and a half runs apiece. N o t t s . F irst Innings. M r. C. W . W right, b R ich ­ ardson ............................. Mr.J. A.

Sh e r w in ’ s B e n e f it . With characteristic liberality the Middlesex Committee had decided to give the proceeds of this match, begun at Lord's on Mor.d iy, for the benefit of Sherwin, the Notts wicket keeper, in recognition of his long services as a ground bowler at Lerd’s. Notwithstanding the threatening weather, the game progressed on Monday without interruption, and 11,914 persons paid to witness the play. Neither County had its full strength, allhough Somer­ setshire was fairly well represented. There was one rotable feature in its eleven, the presence of Mr. L. H Ga**, who used to play for Hampshire ar.d we believe is qualified for Somersetshire by birth Somersetshire won the tos3, but Mr. Woods decided to put his opponents in. Messrs. Stoddart nnd Webbe, however, made such a good start for Middlesex that 55 was up before a wicket fell. Subsequently, however, Mr. Woods and Tyler bowled with great effect, and Mr. Henerv, who hit with his wonted resolution for 39, alone made any stay. Somersetshire in their turn made even a worse display. Rawlin at d Hearne indeed bowled with such complete success, that Messrs. Woods and Dunlop alone gob double figures,and when the tenth wicket fell the total was only 58 In the follow on they wera only a trifle more successful, thanks mainly to Messrs. Woods and Roe, the latter of whom was rot out with 25 of the total of 84 to his credit when p’ay erased on Monday night. Mr. Roe added 28 on Tuesday morning in excellent style, but no one gave him any assistance, so that the total after all only reached 113. This left Middl-Sex with 30 to win, and as Messrs. Hayman and Lucas got them, Somersetshire were beaten by ten wicke's. Rawlin took ten wickets for Middlesex at a cost of only 53 runs. M id d l e s e x . F irst Innings. M r. A. E . Stoddart, c M r.
