Cricket 1896

CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. J uly 23, 1896. YORKSHIRE v. LANCASHIRE. Played at Leeds on July 20, 21 and 22. Yorkshire won by 123 runs. Much importance was attached to this match, for although Lancashire have done badly against the Australians and some of the counties, they generally have done well against Yorkshire, and, for the matter of that, against Surrey. Yorkshire seemed to have gained a decided advantage in winning- the toss, but although Mr. Jackson and Brown did fairly well, and Tunnicliffe broke the spell of bad luck which has been over him for some time, the total only reached 190. Now was Lancashire’s chance. But once more many of the men with great reputations failed to do themselves justice. Fortunately, for the county, Mr. MacLaren, Tyldesley, Baker and Ward all made fair scores, but despite their effort*, the total was 21 less than that of Yorkshire, who in their second innings put on a score of 209. Nearly all the Yorkshiremen made double figures, but no innings stood out pro­ minently. Lancashire, with the exception of Mr. MacLaren and Mr. Bowley, collapsed in the second innings. Bain fell in the night and also on the next morning. Y orksh ire . First innings. F. S.

Played at Blackheath. on July 20, 21, and 22. Kent won by 145 runs. With almost all their best players at their service, Kent seemed to have a good chance of victory, more especially as they won the toss. The beginning of their first innings was disastrous, but Weigall and Livesay, who both played excellent cricket, stopped the rot which seemed to have set in badly, and as the tail were in good form the total was reasonably large. The two best batsmen on the Somerset side—Mr. Lionel Palairet and Mr. Woods—only made four between them, and Mr. Hill, Mr. Stanley, and Mr. B. C. N. Palairet were all out for less than three apiece, so that the outlook was unpromising in the extreme. But, as in the Kent innings, the tail did well, and Mr. Boe was also in splendid form ; it was a pity that one of his partners did not stay long enough for him to make his hundred, for his innings was of great excellence. When Kent went in again there was some lively batting by Mr. Burnup, Mr. Mason, Mr. Livesay, Martin and Mr. Weigill, while Hearne played a sound innings. When Somerset went in again, Mr. Boe played splendidly, and was well backed up by Bobson, but the rest of the team did but little. K en t . First innings. Second inning3. J. B.

THE DERBYSH IRE MATCH. (TW E N TY-FIR ST MATCH OF THE TO U R). Played at Derby, on July 20, 21 and 22. Drawn. On an absolutely perfect wicket—the Derby wickets are nowadays among the very best in the country—the Australians enjoyed the privilege of batting first. It was the old story—opposed to a team of which the strongest point is certainly not bowling, they had a rare chance of improving their averages, and half the team made use of a •glorious opportunity. It is almost needless to say that as Iredale, Giffen, Trott, Donnan and Hill were the men who made the big scores, the cricket was, as nearly as possible, perfect Trott, Hill and Donnan each made a hundred, and the captain played most attractive cricket. Donnan is nothing if not pains­ taking, and when he is once set, he is as difficult to move as Bannermau. The innings lasted until nearly the end of the second day, and, of course, there was nothing on earth for Derbyshire to do, except to try to make a draw by whatever means they thought proper. They accomplished their object with the greatest ease, showing some very tine batting during the day. A u stralian s . F. A. Iredale, c and b C.
