S ept . 5, 1895. CRICKET: A WEEKLY KECOR.D OF THE GAME. 395 STJRKEY v. HAMPSHIRE. At Kennington Oval, September 2and 3. Uponits result really depended the championship among the counties. Awinordrawwould make Surrey’sposition assured, but if Hampshire proved successful Lanca­ shire’s average would be the best. The Surrey eleven diffeied in three instances from that which defeated Sussex, K. J. Key, Lohmann and Wood standing down, and in their places Street, Nice and Marshall weie included in the side. Nice has played iu the secondeleven for the last two years, but this was his first appearance for the county. He is a native of Surrey. Except for Dr. R. Bencraft, Hampshire had an almost representative eleven. Hampshirewon the toss. Ward and Barton had only scored 14 when Lockwoodsentbacktheamateur. Bartonmadeseveral capital strokes, and had scored 23 out of 28 when he wascaught. CaptainQuintonat 31 was clean bowled. At thispointHill improvedmattersconsiderably. One over from Lockwood realised 19. Wynyard’s 21 took seventy minutes to compile. The partnership had produced 51inthirty minutes. Bacon failed to score. Hill was batting an hour for his59, which was of the utmost value, and included a 5, ten 4’s, and a 2. His was the sixth wicket to fall, at 116. The last two wickets gave a good deal of trouble, Baldwin staying while 17were put on, andWootton kept up his wicket for half an hour, the last partnership realising ‘25. Richards was batting an hourandthirty-fiveminutes. Abel and Maurice Read scored very freely when Surrey’s innings was commenced, but Abel was taken in the slips with the total at 40. The first 35hadbeen hit up in twenty minutes. Maurice Read played fine, dashing cricket ; but the batsmenh~ld their own till stumpswere drawn for the day, the total standing at 163, Maurice Read being not out 87, and Brockwellnot out 16. Brockwell cxiried thetotal pastthat of Hants, but did not stay much longer. The partnership real­ ised 9•in sixty-five minutes. Brockwell being respon­ sible for 28. Holland opened well, and then Maurice Read sent up 20i».the result of two hours andtw nty- five minutes’ cricket, in his most brilliant innings of 131, which included sixteen 4’s, five 3’s, and eight 2’s. Maurice Read completed his 1,000 runs this season. Walter Read and Street punished the bowling freely, and at length a good catchatloag-on causing Street’s dismissal, with the total at 354 for peven wickets. Only five runs h^d been added when Read was out. For an hour and ten minutes Walter Readhadplayed admirable cricket, and his 43 was quite free from blemish. Ten minutes sufficed to finish off the inn­ ings. Hampshire, in a minority of 192, started badly on going in a second time. Captain Wynyard was caught when but six runs had been slowly scored. Barton played with great determination, and Ward shaping well, a capital stand was made. Barton completed his 50 in seventyminutes, the total being 76. He did not staymuch longer. In sixty-fivemin­ utes the partnership had realised 76, while Barton had scored his 57 in an hour and a quarter. Ward stayed till 103, when he was taken at the wicket for a steady 31, the result of an hour and a quarter’s fault­ less batting. An extraordinarychange came over the game, Richardson carrying all before him. And in such quick succession did they fall that nine were down for 129, Richardson having desposed of the last six men while only 26 runs were added. Wootton, however, on being joined by Baldwin, hit out in the pluckiest manner. But at length Richardson bowled Wootton, and the innings closed at ten minutes past six for 172, leaving Surrey victorious by an innings and 20 runs. Thanks almostentirelytoWootton, the last partnership had put on 43intwenty-fiveminutes, the left-hander contributing a most free but risky 37. Score and analysis :— H am pshire . I BOWLING ANALYSIS.

At Scarborough, September 2nd and 3rd. Lord Hawke, who was entrustedwith the selection of the Northern side, may becongratulatedupouthesuccess, as, apart from F. S. Jackson, Mold, and Shrewsbury, it would not be possible to improve it very much, but C. I. Thornton, on the other hand, had the greatest difficulty witu the Southern Team. As it was, the Southeners had only about four first-class batsmen representing them. Douglas, whoopenedthe innings with Hewett, was splendidly caught at short slip at 8, Hewett was dismissed in a similar manner at 18, of which his proportion was 17, and Mariow fell to a catch at extra slip at 29. Jessop's appearance was watched with some interest, but hisdisplaywasbrief, as, after hitting a single and three 4’s, he wasbeauti­ fully stumped at 42. Burns left at 58, and Hearne was bowled at 66. Three other wickets fell at 82, and ultimately the innings terminated at twenty minutes to two for 101. The North lost Ward’swicketfor8runs. McLaren was joined by Tunnicliffe, and the crowd was treated to a superb exhibition of the Pudsey professional’s driving power. Hitting away at a tremendous rate, he speedily caught and passed McLaren’s score, and completed his own 50 in half an hour out of 74. Altogether83runs were addedinfortyminutesbefore McLaren lost his wicket. The Old Harrovian had made 30in three quarters of anhour, andthroughout played pretty cricket. Brown was in tenminutes for a couple of runs. Hawke joined Tunnicliffe, the professional completing his 100with the full total 165 in an hour and twenty minutes. However, at 170, when the partnership had yielded 65 in fifty minutes. Hawke was“ leg-before,” and directly afterwards, at 172, Tunnicliffe’s innings came to a conclusion. His remarkable score of 105was the result of anhourand a half’s scay, and included a straight drive out of the ground for 6, sixteen 4’s, two 3’s, and six 2’s. Chat- tertcn and Davidson scored 45runs steadily, erethere was a breakdown, the sixth, seventh, and eighth wickets falling at 217. Hirst and Attewell stayed a while, the former scoring a total of 24 in six hits, but Attewell was out at 256, and Hirst at the same score. Hewett sent in Douglas and Hearne. The batting proved very attractive, and 38went up in twenty-five minutes before the old Cantab fell to a catch in the deep field. Hearne left with the score at 40, and Jessop was disposed of before he became dangerous at 48. Bums joined Marlow, and they actually contributed 62 in half an hour before Burns was caught at third man at 110. With Hewettin, Marlow hit harder than ever, and having first completed his 1.U0Oruns tor the season, he made his 50 in less than an hour. This partnership produced 40 runs in twenty-five minutes, and then Hewett was bowled at 150. The deficit was wiped out. with half thewickets standing, but the last ball before luncheon proved fatal to Marlow, who was bowled with the figures at 160. Marlow’s share of the 122 contributed while he was in amounted to a dashing 71, in which he hit no fewer than fourteen 4’s, a 3, and two 2’s. With Spofforth dismissed before another run was obtained, the South’s prospect of making a good fight of it sank to the lowestebb. Meadmadeseveral goodhit**, but lost Board at 174, and after Martinwas bowled at 189, was out at the last-mentioned score, and the innings was over, leaving the North 35 to make to win. Hawke scored 12out of 13, and was caught at thewicket, and Hirst was taken at third man at 20, but Chatterton and Tunnicliffe steadily hit off the remaining runs necessary, and the North were left with an eight wickets victory.
