Cricket 1894

AUG. 9, 1894 CRICKET * k WEEKLY BECORP OB' THE GAMEi 819 G L O U C E S T E R S H IR E v. SU SSE X. N o play w as possible in this m atch on M onday in consequen ce o f rain, and as the S ussex innings occu pied the w hole o f the tim e allow ed for actual Cricket on T uesday, the result w as a little dou btful. Sussex w on the toss, tu t the w icket on T uesday helped the bow lers con sid erably a t tim es, so that the perform an ce of the in-side w as the m ore creditable. G loucester­ shire w ere able to secure th e services o f M r. C. L . T ow nsend, th e slow bow ler o f C lifton College, w ho did th e cou n ty 6uch g ood service last year. As the w icket w as they thought it expedient to ca ll in the h elp o f W oof, w h o had n ot represented G loucestershire since 1891. M r. T ow n send bow led w ith con sid erable success, and w ith fix w ickets dow n fo r 106 there w as no great reason to a ntici­ pate a b ig total. A s it w as, M r. F ry and B utt, though neith er o f them at h om e at th e outset, offered a stu bborn resistance, adding 178 in a little over tw o h ours and a h alf. M r. F ry m ight have been caught w hen he had m ade 41, and this w as his on ly actual chance. B u tt’s 65, too, was a very useful display o f cricket. A fter their separa­ tion the end soon cam e, and as the last three batsm en on ly added 14, the in nings closed fo r 302. Mr. T ow n sen d took six o f the ten w ickets, as w i'l le seen. R ain prevented G loucestershire going in on M onday night, and they started batting yester­ day under con siderable disadvantages on a soft w icket, and w ith a big to 'a l against them . Parris and H ilton w ere n ot s ow to utilise the oppor­ tunity o f a pitch favouring the ball, and though the latter w as changed on ce fo r M r. B rann, by lu ncheon tim e h alf th e w ickets w ere dow n fo r 98. o f w h ich W .G . had con trib u ted 33. A I right sun during th e interval m ade the w icket still m ore difficult, and P arris proved so effective that the outstanding batsm en w ere all dism issed for an addition o f 23 runs. P arris took seven w ickets fo r 70 runs. M r. R ice w as b attin g tw o hours for his 38, th e h ighest score on th e side. F ollow ing on 181 to th e bad, G loucestershire's chancea of saving the gam e, as th e w ick et was, w ere o f the sm allest. P arris again took fu ll advantage o f the help th e ground gave him , and though M r. F erris and P ainter both played up, th e tenth w icket fell w ith th e to ta l only 77. Sussex accordingly had an easy w in b y an in nings and 104 runs. In the m atch altogether P arris took fifteen w ickets for 98 runs. S u s s e x . L E IC E S T E R S H IR E v. E S S E X . R ain prevented a com m en cem en t o f this m atch on M onday, and as on Tuesday on ly eleven w ickets fell there w as lic.le or n o ch an ce o f a definite result. E ssex w ere batting fou r hours on T uesday fo r an aggregate o f 18J. I h e early play gave little in dication o f such a total, as fou r of the best ta tsm en w ere ou t fo r only 14 T h e honours w ere divided betw een M r. tlailey, Mr. K ortright, M r. L ucas, and P iik ett, w h o together a ccou n ted for 132 o f 171 from the bat. Mr. H ailey w as in altogether three hours and a half fo r his 50, a defensive in nings o f th e greatest value. L eicestersh ire, w h o had m ade 33 on T uesday night at a cost o f H olla n d’s w icket, | only added thirteen yesterday b efore the last w icket fell. O f these, too, seven w ere extras, so that nine o f the eleven only m anaged to m ake six runs betw een them . Mead and P ickett, helped by the w icket, w ere irresistible, and w hile the form er took five w ickets fo r four runs, F ickett g ot three bats­ m en fo r tw o. T h e innings w as hardly over before rain began to fall heavily, and it w as n ot till past fou r o ’clock that L eicestershire, w h o w ere in a m inority o f 136, were able to follow on. W ith the w icket easier they fared m u ch better, and w hen tim e w as up lh e gam e w as left unfinished writh the score as under. E s s e x .

T h ou g h M onday w as a blank day ow in g to rain so m uch progress w as m ade a fterw ards, th a t at o n e tim e it look ed as if the fiirst m a tch o f the C anterbury w eek w ou ld t e duly com p leted . K ent, w inning the toss, had no alternative tu t to go in first in the u nsettled appearance o f the w eather, and on th e slow w icket did w ell to rea ch a to ta l of 171. F o r this they w ere indebted to th ree batsm en, M essrs. W ilson , W eigall, and S tew art. T h e first tw o p u t on 54 fo r the fifth, and W eiga ll and Stew art 61 fo r the sixth w icket. A ll three played a dm irable crick et in their several m ethods. M r. W ilson w as batting an h ou r and a h alf, M r. W eiga ll ha f an h ou r longer, and neither, as fa r as w e saw. gave a chance. W hen W arw icksh ire w ent in sh ortly b e fo re fou r o ’clo ck th e w icket h a d begun to help th e bow lers con sid erably, and M artin and v alter H earne derived so m u ch assistance from the ground that h a lf th e W arw ickshire w ickets fell in less than an h ou r fo r forty runs. A follow -on th en seem ed to b e the m ost likely resu lt o f the first hands. Mr. D cck er a fter escaping a ch a n ce o f stu m p in g, h ow ­ ever, h it freely for a tim e, and L illey, Santal and P a 'le ta ll played u p so pluckily that b efore the last w ick et fell th e to ta l had been in creased to 122 run s. T h e com p letion o f the in nings brought th e cricket to an end fo r the day. W a lter H earne and M artin bore th e I runt o f the l ow lin g for K ent, and b oth had excellent figures. H eavy rain yesterday m orn in g prevented a resum ption till a fter the lu n ch eon interval, and it w as a q uarter to three o ’clo ck b efore K ent, w h o h a d a lead of 49 on the first innings, w ent in a second tim e. W ith a w et b all and ground the W a rw ick ­ shire bow lers w ere n o t S' en to the le s t advantage, and M essrs. M ason and R ashleigh w ere able to pu t on 75 fo r the first w icket. A n oth er interval from ra in follow ed M r. M ason’s dism issal, and on the resum ption M r. R ashleigh con tin u ed to play fine cricket. M essrs. P erkins and W ilson , gave little trouble, bu t A lec H earne gave Mr. R ashleigh better assistance. M r. R ash leigh h im ­ self stayed till he had m ade 106, a thoroughly w ell play e l and sou n d innings, in every w ay w orth y o f his rep u tation . U ltim ately the m atch w as draw n w ith th e score 187 fo r five w ickets, so that at the finish K ent w ere 236 on w ith h alf their w ickets in hand. K e n t . F irst Innings. M r. J. R .
