Cricket 1897

172 CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THB GAME. M a y 27, 1897. SURREY v. DERBYSHIRE. Played at the Oval on May 24, 25, and 26. Surrey won by an innings and 3 runs. Although Surrey had thematch in hand from the beginning, and five of the team made over 50, while Richardson and Brockwell bowled well, the honours of the game fell to two Derbyshire men, Bagshaw and Storer. The latter went on with the variety of bowling which is best known as “ all sorts,” at a time when Surrey seemed likely to make a very big score. The total was 342 for five wickets when the Derbyshire wicket-keeper went on; it was only 408 instead of about 600when the innings closed. Storer took fivewickets for40. One of these days it will be recognised that although he is not quite the sort of bowler to keep up an end, he is not at all unlikely to get a man out, however well set he may be. He bowls plenty ot out and outbad balls, but he seldom fails to put in afew very difficult ones among them. The other Derbyshire man, Bagshaw, went in first for his side, and carried his bat for an excellent innings of 114. Derbyshire made a remarkably good beginning, and put on 185for four wickets, thanks to good cncfcet by Mr. Wright, Chatterton and Bagshaw. But the whole side was out for 218. When stumps were drawn on the second day, Derby­ shire had made 108for fivewicketsinthefollowon, so thattheylookedverymuchlikebeingbeateninaninn­ ings,anddespitegoodcricketbyMr.Wright,Bagshaw, Storer, and Sugg, they just failed to save the innings defeat. Their batting was a great contrast to that of the Surrey men, who nearly all made runs. Abel, althoughhemade 65, washardly in as good form as usual, but Hayward played a very correct and pretty innings of 86, while Brockwell (59), andMr. Chinnery (50), batted in themost attractive manner.

Yorkshire won by an innings and 129 runs. Just at thepresent timje the lot of the Leicester­ shire team is not a hapipy one. The batting is not strong, the bowling is weak, and Pougher is unableto play. To meet Yorkshire under theseconditions isto meet with disaster, andwhether theYorkshireEleven is, or is not what it oncewas, asis claimed by some, it was certain to be strong enough towin on aYork­ shire ground, unlesssomething of amarvellous kind happened. It was in the nature of things that York­ shire shouldwin the toss, but they did not seemlike making much useof it until they had lost Mr. Jack­ son, Tunnicliffe, Denton and Wainwright. A matter of 98 runs for thesefour wicketswasnotbyanymeans a promising beginning, but when Moorhouse and Peel came together, the fates soon shewedwhich side they were going to take. Moorhouse missed his hundred by only nine ; Peel was more fortunate and scored 115: Hirst got within two of Moorhouse’s number, andMr. Milligan made 42. All these scores added together produced a very formidable total, so formidable that the Leicestershire batsmen seem to have lost hope in the firstinnings, forthey only made 124, all thechief Yorkshire bowlers, exceptMr. Jack­ son, having a hand in their dismissal. In the follow on the start was better, but at the dose of the day four wickets were down for 86. There was never any question as to the result, although Mr. de Trafford, Tomlin, Coe, and Geeson did their best to make the defeat as small aspossible. Y o r k s h ir e .

LANCASHIRE. Played at Nottingham on May 24, 25 and 26 Abandoned owing to rain. On paper form there was not much to choose betweenthesetwo counties, and a good deal depended on which side won the toss. This good fortune fell to Lancashire, who made excellent use of their opportunities. The regular Notts bowlers made but little impression on them, and it was left to Dench, the colt, to get most of the wickets; he certainly seems by far the most promising colt of the year. Ward made 32, Smith 47, and Baker 153—a very fine innings, which lasted for only a few minutes over threehour^. Dench, who was only put on as fourth change, hadtheexcellentanalysisoffivewicketsfor62. Attewell took most of the other wickets, but hewas much more hit about than usual. Notts had to go in against a total of 318, and began badly, losing two wickets to Mold for 40. On Tuesday this scorewas carried to 64 for one more wicket, when a thunder­ storm came and prevented further play during the day. Shrewsbury was not out, 31. This was amost unfortunate turn in the weather, for no play could take plr.ceonWednesday. L a n c a s h ir e . Ward (A.), b Dench .. 32 Paul, b Guttridge ... 0 Sugg (F.
