A ug . 29, 1895. CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 373 SUSSEX v. KENT. At Brighton, August 22nd, 23rd, and 24th. Kent made but one change, Livesay for Patterson, from the teamwhich made such a line fight at the Oval, and Sussex had a very good team. The Hove ground was as good as usual, and the first inniugs of Kent was a great disappointment. Hearne and Livesay took thirty-five minutes to score lfi, and then Livesay was bowled. Without the addition of a run Rash­ leigh and Mason were disposed of. At 17 Stewart, like Mason, was caught at point, and without further score Easby also left. Alec Hearne was sixth out at 44, having been in eighty minutes for 18, but Marchant and Kemp put on 20runs for theseventh wicket, though Marchant might have been caught when 12. A very small total seemed imminentwhen eight wickets were down for 65, but Martin hit hard, and in forty-five minutes made 43 out of 55, Writrht playing very steadily. Bradley, the lastman, for the first time made a few runs, and his 20 out of 21 were most valuable. Sussex lost Marlow at 14, but Fry and Ranjitsinhji, after a bad start by the latter, played good cricket, especially the Oxonian. In eighty minutes they scored 81 runs, Fry being then out for 54, which occupied him an hour and a half, Murdoch failed, and Butt was sent in to play out time, in which he succeeded. On Friday Butt, Ranjitsinhji, and Newham were got rid of for the addition of 17 runs, six wickets being down for 123 ; but Brann and Bean in an hour added 63 for the seventh wicket Bean took out his bat for 50 in seventy-five minutes, including five 4’s and nine 2’s, but he might have been caught at 34. Ranjitsinhji’s 51 included 27singles, an unusual proportionfor him. Kent were 59 runs behind, and Alec Heame and Mason had made up but 23 of these when the Wintonian was out. Rashleigh succeeded, and the arrears were cleared off, Kent having then almost an even position. At 107the second wicket fell, the 84 having been scored inseventyminutes. Heame had been in an hour and forty minutes for his 39. Rash- leigh’s fine innings terminated at 113; it was com­ menced very finely, but his last 4 runs were made in twenty-five minutes. The batting then broke down except that Livesay was at the wickets over an hour for 26, and Martin made a few hits, but in the end Sussex were set only 110 to win, of which 8were scored without loss before play was adjourned. On Saturday Newham was dismissed at 19, and then Ranjitsinhji and Marlowplayinginbrilliantstyle, the former greatly improving on his first display in the match, in an hour 93 were obtained, the batting being of a very high order. Ranjitsinhji’s share was 53, in which were eight 4’s and four 2’s, and he thus scored 104 in thematch for once out. Marlow’s not out 40was also a really good innings. Sussex thus won by nine wickets.

Somer­ setshire were without R. C. N. Palairet and V. T. Hill, and Surrey without K. J. Key and Wood. Hoiland;having recovered from the injurytohisarm, re-appeared for Surrey. The wicket was sound, but runs did not come very readily; Somersetshire, who had first innings, being disposedof for 168. Twenty- three were made in the first quarter of an hour,when Fowler, whose share was 20. left. Roe found the next ball fatal, but with Dunlop in, Lionel Palairet completed his 1,000 runs this season. The third wicket fell at 154, and Capt. Hedley quickly left. Woods and Palairet however scored freely, and in thirty-five minutes 51 runs were put on when the captain was caught at the wicket. Palairet was also disposed of similarly, his beautifully played innings of 64including nine 4’s. He was batting ninety-five minutes. During the month he has made 380 runs for five times out, and has only once been dismissed for a small score. No one else did much, and the innings closed for 168. Richardson in its course beat record for wickets taken in a season. Abel and Maurice Read, started well, hitting up 44before the latter was caught at mid-off, and Hayward proved a capital partner to Abel, the score being 69 made in 65minutes before Abel was out. Hayward followed with the same scorc as Abel made in the same time. Brockwell was quicklyout, but the 100 went up with four wickets down. Then Dunlop magnificently caught Holland, W. W. Read was bowled, and at 123 Leveson-Gower and Lohmann both left. Lockwood andMarshall played out time, but next dayonly four runs were added for the two remainingwickets. The feature of the innings, indeed of the match, was Tyler’s wonderful performance in dismissing the whole of the Surrey team, and for only 49 runs. A handsome collection was made for him, and fitly rewarded his remarkable feat. Somersetshire, with a lead of 29, scoredvery freelv at the *tart, Dunlop and Fowler hitting up 50in thirty-five minutes, but the pace then slackened, and after nine had been added in twenty minutes rain stopped play. At 66 Dunlop was out for 33, acapital display, but Fowler batted eighty minutes for an equally good 44, and was dismissed at 89. L. Palairet again showed good form, though missed when two by Marshall, but ex­ cepting Tyler, who made 13 of the last 14, no one else made any score, and Surrey were set 171 to win on a treacherous wicket. M. Readmade15outof 17before being caught, but Hayward and Abel played most carefully. At 38Abel wasrunout. afterfiftyminutes play, for 16. Hayward and Brockwell bysteadyplay took the score to 50, andafterHaywardleftBrockwell and Holland hit out, till at*78the former was taught in the long field. Holland was out l.b.w. two later, but Marshall stiytd MathLockwood till stumps were drawn, Surrey wanting feOwith five wicktts to fall. On Saturday theie was a tame finish, W. Read and •Leveson-Gowerbeing runout, andthoughRichardson and Lohmann made a few good hits the result was never in doubt, Somersetshire winning a good match by 53runs. Score and analysis:— S omerset .
