Cricket 1897

M a y 13, 1897. CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 131 CAMBRIDGE SENIORS’ MATCH. Played at Cambridge on May 6, 7 and 8. Mr. Garnett’s side won by 10 wickets. It cannot be said tbat the batting on the first day of this match was at all in accordance with what is traditional at the Universities, and a chance spectator might have been pardoned if he had imagined that he was watching teams of professionals struggling for all they knew to play out time. Towards the end of the day the old style of University batting began to re-assert itself, and during the rest of the match some lively cricket was seen. Mr. Simpson’s side kept the wickets for most of the first day, and the highest score— 29, by H . J. D ivenport— was made in an hour and a half. This performance on a very cold day was not as highly appreciated as it might have been under more fortunate circumstances. On the second day, which was warmer, the cricket improved, and although the run-getting could at no time be described as fast, it was never monotonously slow. Several men dis­ tinguished themselves, and, what is of considerable importance, among them were two or three who have a reason­ able chance of getting a place in the Eleven if they play up to their form. H . H . B. Hawkins, who went to Cam- brilge with a great school reputation, did not do himself justice last year, but seems to have revived his form this season ; he played a first-class innings of 91. J. H. Stogdon, another man of whom great things were expected, nearly got into the Eleven last year, and has begun the present season extremely well. His inn­ ings of 100, the highest made during the match, deserves high praise. The only bowler who did well enough to be con­ sidered worth a trial in the match against Mr. Thornton’sX I. was E. A. Druce, who took five wickets for 44 in the first innings of Mr. Simpson’sside; but De Zoete, who did very little, was chosen instead of him. De M b . G. H. Simpson’ s Sides. First innings.

On the first day’s play Notts had a decided advantage, having scored 112 and disposed of five M.C.C. batsmen for 28. Thanks to a determined innings of 40 by Storer the M.C.C. were only six behind. Dench, a colt, was the best bowler for N.jtts. There was nothing interesting in the Notts second innings except a good 23 by Gunn and |a lucky stand for the last wicket by Dench and Hardstaff, but as the wicket was greatly in favour of the b iwlers the total of 101, plus the lead of six on the first innings, was thought to be good enough to give the victory to the county. Against the bowling of Attewell and Hardstaff the M.C.C. could do very little, and at no time did they seem to be playing a winning game. N otts . First innings. A. O.
