Cricket 1894

JTJLY 12, 1894 CBICKET i A WEEKLY EECORD OF THE GAME* 243 age; and a few others have suffered also from similar neglect or prejudice. My Aberdeen paper takes no notice of Warwickshire v. Hampshire, which was run­ ning very evenly up to “ half-time,” 347— 312. That young man from Basingstoke, whose name smacks of Hampshire, made a remarkable first appearance with an innings of 114. I wish some one would go to the trouble of collecting all “ first innings’ ’ in first-class cricket. Fred Lillywhite used to enumerate every batsman’s initial scores at Lord’s. Or was it not Wisden in his first or second almanack ? I have often read the lists down, and have noted with great in­ terest what large first innings appear against names that never afterwards rose to distinc­ tion. Witness J. Eickett’s 196 (not out) in his first county match at the Oval, either in 1867 or 1868. He was pre-eminently a one- innings cricketer. Congratulations to Owen, of Essex, for his splendid double— 108 and 86 (not out) against an attenuated Oxford eleven. W ill that count as first-class? One hundred and sixty-two runs for one wicket in the last in­ nings is an additional proof of the advancing skill of our second-rate counties. P.S,— I must be excused for passing by the Univeisity match. There really was nothing in it to excite sufficient enthusiasm to warrant reference to it at this distance. Oxford won, as I expected, though they want two more victories to put them neck and neck with Cambridge. E S S E X v. O X F O R D U N IV E R S IT Y . T h ou gh the m atch w h ich occu pied the cou n ty ground at L eyton the latter part o f last w eek b ore the above title, th e eleven w hich opposed E ssex co u ld hardly be fairly called O xford U n iver­ sity .O nly five o f the team w h ich b eat C am bridge at L o rd ’s, in fa ct, w ere playing, and m ore than one o f th ose w ho filled the vacancies w ere qu ite un­ know n to fam e as cricketers. U nder the circu m ­ stances, therefore, it w as hardly a surprise that th e cou n ty, w ith about its best side, should have had the advantage throughout. T h e U niversity w ere 103 to the bad on th e first hands, a result due chiefly to a fine in nings o f 109 by M r. Owen, fo r E ssex, and the effective bow ling o f M ead. W hen they w ent in a secon d tim e the O xford eleven m ade a m u ch better show . F or this they w ere m ain ly indebted to th e earlier batsm en. M essrs. F ry, F oster, and W arner, indeed, w ere re­ sponsible fo r 191 ou t o f 253 from th e bat. On Saturday m orning E ssex w ere left w ith 161 to get to w in, and, thanks to a lon g stand b y M r Owen and Carpenter, w h o raised th e score from 9 to 161 w hile they w ere together, th ey w on in fine style w ith nine w ickets to spare. Mr. O w en scored 195 runs in th e m atch, and h is cricket each tim e w as o f th e best kind. H e w as in tw o hours and ‘'vf6nty m inutes on Saturday fo r his 86 (not out), w hich w as alt 'gether free fro m a m istake. Car­ penter s 60 (n ot out) though, up to a certain point, equally good, tu t w as m arred b y m ore than one m istake during the la tter part. M ead’s bow l­ ing, too, had m u ch to do w ith the su ccess o f the cou n ty. In the m atch h e took thirteen w ickets at a co s t o f ju st over ten and a h a lf runs apiece. OXFOBD U M IVSjlBITT.
