S h e p b o r n e .— On July 13 and 14 Sherborne played Bra^field College at Braifield, on a wicket very soft and difficult owing to rain. Bradfield batted first and made 104, of which Page, their captain, made 17. Tapsfield was in a long time for 12, and Stopford shaped well in making 16. Nine wickets were down for 79 when Cantley came in and hit about him, making 16 out of 25 Sherborne, who began with Stevens and Atkinson, had to bat on a wicket by this time now in a dreadful state, and very much cut up. Stevens was bowled after playing the ball on to his pads for 12. Of the rest Bidout (11) and Mason (11) alone got into double figures, and the total only reached 72. Packer puzzled the batsmen greatly, but Leney got most wickets. In their second in n iD gs Bradfield scored very slowly at one time, nearly a quarter of an hour passing without a run. Truell (12), Stopford (11), and Kitchin (11) got into double figures, and nine wickets were down for 68, when Hastings and Cautley then added 27 runs, raising the total to 95. Stanger-Leathes bowled very well, taking six wickets for 41 runs. W ith 128 runs to win, Stevens and Atkinson com ­ menced Sherborne’s second innings. Stevens was out before a run had been scored, but Ridout (12) and Atkinson put on 18 for the next wicket. Wyatt-Smith played splendidly for 26, and Dixon hit a ball on to his wicket in trying to keep it off. Six wickets were down for 55, when Young made a gallant attempt to win the match, hitting hard for 28 (not out). Stanger-Leathes helped him to add 23 for the ninth wicket, but Radford was bowled at 109, Bradfield thus winning by 18 runs. After the match H. Gh YouDg received his oolours.
