T h e w icket, ow ing to recent rain, w as very soft at th e outset, and W . G . w as apparen tly a little in dou bt as to the b est cou rse to pursue w hen he h «d w on th e toss. A s it w as, th e early play w as in no w ay suggestive o f a g ood score, and w hen the eighth w icket fell th e tota l w as only 88 A rem ark­ able stand by Mr. F ran cis and B oard changed the w hole aspectof the m a tch . W h ile th e form er at first played a defensive gam e, B oa rd h it ou t lu stily and to such a tune that h e scored 50 o f the n ext 76 runs in five m in u tes under th e hour. A fter a tim e, too, the am ateur show ed m ore freedom , and w hen he w as out, after an addition o f l::0,bis ow n share w as 55, an in valuable innings, w ith ou t a fault. R oberts w as b ow led the first ball he had, and so th e side w ere ou t fo r 228. B oa rd carried ou t his bat fo r 84, a rem ark ably fine display o f spirited batting. H e gave n o ch an ce, and h is score w as far and aw ay th e b est thin g h e h a s don e as yet in C ounty crick et. M iddlesex, w h o m ade six at the expense of P h illip s’ w icket in th e last ten m in u tes on T hursday night, w ere b attin g fo r tw o hours and a quarter on the follow in g day. T h e w ick et under a brigh t sun w as very difficult, and the young C lifton ian, C. L . T ow n send, m ade the b all do a great deal. Mr. B a th u rst was in an h ou r and fifty m inu tes fo r his 36, bu t th ou gh six oth ers got in to dou ble figures, n o on e stopped very lon g, and w hen th e last w icket fell th e total w as 330. M iddlesex opened their secon d innings in a m in ority o f 95, and w ith the p itch easier after phowers, Messrs. W eb be and S toddart had m ade th irty w ith ou t th e loss o f a w icket before rain stop ped play fo r th e day. L ip h t show ers again k ep t the w ick et fairly easy on Saturday m orning, and so w ell did the M iddlesex batsm en utilise their opp ortu n ities that on ly eight w ickets w ere dow n w hen Mr. W eb b e closed his innings w ith the total at 247. W ith 153 to w in, and an hour and fifty m in u tes left fo r p la y ,'G lou cester­ shire on a drying w ick et had anything bu t an easy task to avert defeat. Six batsm en w ere ou t fo r 39, and w ith forty five m inu tes rem aining, and J. T. H earne in his best form , M iddlesex seem ed to have a really good ch a n ce o f success. A s it was, a usefu l stand o f thirty-five m inutes b y M essrs. R ice and T ow n sen d saved the in-side, and u ltim ately th e gam e w as draw n, G loucester­ shire w anting 91 to w in, w ith on ly tw o w ickets to fall. In th e m atch H earne took eleven w ickets fo r M iddlesex at a co s t o f exactly eleven rons apiece. G l o u c e s t e r s h ir e . F irst Innings. S econd Innings.
