Cricket 1896

J u l y 9, 1896. CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 269 THE AUSTRALIANS. T H E N O R T H O F E N G L A N D M A T C H . (SIX T E E N T H OF TH E T O U R .) Played at Old Trafford on July 2, 3, and 4. Australians won by 42 runs. It is very seldom that a match between the North of England and the Australians has not produced interesting cricket, and although in the present match the North had to do without any of the York­ shire and Derbyshire men, to say nothing of Gunn and Shrewsbury, they managed to make the Austra­ lians work hard for victory. W ith a good fortune which is becoming proverbial, Trott again won the toss, but only three of his side came o ff- Gregory with a fine 71, Darling with 20, and Eady with 33. Nevertheless, the total of 195 was sufficiently large to give the visitors hopes of winning, for though the North team was reasonably strong on paper in batting, only a few of the men had previously shown any likelihood of getting runs off Australian bowling. At the end of the first day’s play, however, they were not in a very bad position, for with five wickets down they had made 82 runs, with Pougher and Lilley not out. Rain duriDg the night upset calculations, and though the two not-outs batted well, the tail collapsed. For a time, in their second innings, the Australians seemed to be running away with the game, for Iredale and Darling made hay of the bowling. After their dismissal—Iredale for 40 and Dailing for 44 - a rot set in, and the side was out for 119. This left the North with 192 to win, and the betting was about fifty to one that they would not make them, for the wicket was getting pretty bad. At first it seemed as if the whole eleven would go out for about 40, but such a wonderful stand was made by Pougher and Lilley, that the Australians must have become very anxious as to the result. When the two batsmen were parted the score was 136 for six wickets, and (again on paper) the Englishmen had a fair chance oi winning. But the tail did nothing— for the second time during the match. Lilley and Pougher put on 91 runs during their stand in an hour and a quarter—it is a pity that one or two other men did not follow their example. They scored well in both innings, but with the exception of Ward, who made 18 and 14, nobody else did anything worthy of note. The most prominent bowlers during the match were Briggs, Trumble, Jones, and Mold. A u stralian s . First innings. Second innings. G. Giffen, c Jones,b Briggs 0 c Sugg, b Mold... 6 F. A.
