Cricket 1895

150 CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. M ay 23, 1895. M.C.C. v. LANCASHIRE. Two day’s play sufficed for Lancashire to dffeat hy ten wickets the fairly strong team pitted against them at Lord’s hy the M.C.C. on Thursday. A. E. Stoddart, Ward, and Briggs made their first appearance after their Australian tour, but the Northerners were not quite at full strength, as A. C. McLaren had not yet returned from the Colonies. For their strength on paper the club batsmen conspicuously failed, with two exceptions, in their first innings. These were Stoddart, who scored 32 out of 60 in thirty-seven minutes, and Chatterton, who played a faster game than usual and ran up 42 out of 95 in five minutes over the hour. The innings was over by luncheon time for 142, a small total, mostly due to the fine bowling of Mold. The Lancastrians also completed an innings on the first day, though Ward failed, and made a far better show, nine men getting double figures. Tinsley, who made just half the total in an hour and a half, was top scorer. Of the rest Sugg did most, putting on 37 in three quarters of an hour, and with Tinsley, adding 73 for the wicket. The club on Friday had a balance of 116 against them, and of the earlier batsmen, Stoddart alone played with confidence. He scored two-thirds of the 51 notched in the first half-hour, but ton his dismissal wickets fell so rapidly that six were down for 74. Marchant and Davidson, how­ ever, soon averted the prospect of a single innings defeat, and the partnership realised 81 runs in 50 minutes. The hitting of each was brilliant, the amateur having nine 4’ s, a 3,-and four 2’s in his 54, and Davidson six 4’s, three 3’s, and eight 2’s in his 58. Thanks almost entirely to this pair, the County had to go in with asmany as 79 to get. Of the task Hornby and Ward made light, and getting the runs by some brisk batting in an hour, gave Lancashire the victory by ten wickets. Hallam, a Nottingham man by birth, who for some seasons assisted Leicester­ shire in the match, took five of Marylebone’s wickets for 44, a promising debCit for Lancashire.

UNIVERSITY v. C. I. THORNTON’S XI. Mr. Thornton took an exceptionally strong team to the junior university for this annual trial on Thursday last. At both the centres of learning batting is this year exceptionally good and the display of the Cantabs in this match was excellent. The game was drawn in an even condition after three days play in which 1,134 runs were scored for 33 wickets. Three individual scores exceeding the hundred were made and A. Hearne also put on 124 for once out. Though at the outset the visitors lost Hewitt before a run was scored, Jackson and Heame registered 191 before the second wicket fell. Jackson was missed before he had scored, but his otherwise brilliant 122 made in two hours and a quarter included sixteen 4’s. Hearne took half an hour longer to put on 65, and wickets fell quickly till Wainwright, and G. F. Vernon were associa­ ted, the seventh partnership realised 137 in 65 minutes, the bowling being quite wasted for the time. G. F. Vernon, in his 109, had fifteen 4’s, andplayed afine game, giving only one chance. Though 426 was a formidable total to bat against, on the second day the Cantabs played up remarkably well. No one reached the hundred, but eight men attained double figures. Mitchell and Symes-Thomp- son made a good start, 50 going up after half an hour’s play, and 75 runs for the partnership. Then R. A. Studd and N. F. Druce kept together until 156 was on the scoring boards, and the former was not out until 207 for sevenwas the score, Studd’s 75, got in an hour and a half, was the highest and best score of the day. Burrough and Robinson then made a valuable stand and 73 were put on for the eighth wicket. The follow on was saved by seventeen runs and when rain put a stop to play the XI. had lost Hewitt’s wicket for 8 runs. On Saturday seven more wickets fell for 195 runs before Thornton declared his innings closed, Hearne’s not out 59 being the best display. Whatever chance there might have been of a defeat for the Cantabs, was averted by the fine display of N. F. Druce, whose 109 made in an hour and a half included 18 4’s. Several of the Cambridge batsmen failed, but Wilson and W. G. Druce were well set, when through rain stumps were drawn prematurely at a quarter past five o’clock. Score and analysis :— M r . C. I.
