J uly 30, 1896. OKICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 317 YORKSHIRE v. SOMERSET. Played at Dewsbury on July 23 and 24. Yorkshire won by an innings and 6 runs. It was not an easy wicket that Yorkshire enjoyed when they went in to bat, for a good deal of rain had fallen on the days immediately preceding the match, while there was a heavy shower in the morning. Nevertheless, the home team, most of whom played a a vigorous game, did well, and as the wicket did not seem likely to improve, it was evident that Somerset would have to work very hard to escape defeat. Unhappily for them, they had to begin their first innings in a very bad light, which gradually became worse until play had to be abandoned for the day, when 3 wickets were down for 37. On the second morning, rain again fell, and the chances of Somerset became hopeless. The inniDgs closed for 78. Peel and Haigh were the Yorkshire bowlers, and it was not necessary to change them during the innings. In the course of the follow on, rain again fell, so that for a time the bowlers had to use a wet ball, and Somerset began to do better. But as nobody could make any long stand, although most of the side made double figures, the total was not large enough to save the innings. Peel was for the second time during the match very successful with the ball. In the two innings he took 10 wickets for 81, and as healso scored 31, he could be well satisfied with his doings in the game. Y o rksh ire . F. S.

Played at Catford cn July 23 and 24. Kent won by 61 runs. Owing to the long drought, and an apparent diffi­ culty in applying water, the wicket at Catford was in a state which boded misfortune to batsmen; even before the game began it was easy to see, on the wicket itself, that some of the pieces of turf had not become quite welded together. Under these circum­ stances it was almost certain that some bowler or other, if not two or three bowlers, would find a spot which would render them irresistible. As things turned out Martin, the only left hand bowler in the two teams, was exactly suited by the wicket and consfquently he had a splendid analysis; no one could play him or hit him except Lohmann, Abel and Brockwell, and he well deserved the £12 which’was collected for him after the match. Kent, who wanted a victory rather badly, were fortunate enough to win the toss, and so were able to get some batting before the wicket broke up very much. They did very well to make 161, and it was not anticipated that Surrey would be able to approach their score closely, but it was a surprise to everybody that they only saved the follow on by a little. Kent again did fairly well— they generally do well on theirown grounds, whatever the wicket may be like—and Surrey, when they went in a second time, had to make 208. This was an im­ possible total. Nevertheless, for a time, Abel and Brockwell did so well that there was an off chance that Surrey might win after all, but the batting soon broke down, and the rest of the game was only re­ markable for some fine hitting by Lohmann, who made 42, the highest innings in the match. Kent is greatly indebted for its victory to Mr. W. H. Patter­ son, who played very fine cricket in both innings, and Martin. K en t . First innings. Second innings.
