Cricket 1898

J u n e 2, 1898. CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 173 HAMPSHIRE v. DERBYSHIRE. Played at Southampton on May 30, 31 and June 1. Derbyshire won by 10 wickets. Without Captain Wynyard the Hampshire team seems to be at sea, and, when to his absence is added the inability to play of Captain Poore and Captain Quintio, it is odds that a defeat will be the result. Against Derbyshire. on Monday, the batting was moderately good, and Mr. Hill, Webb, Mr. Steele and Mr. Heseltine all made useful scores. It seemed for a time that the total of 141 would be enough, for Derbyshire lost both Mr. Evershed and Mr. Wright f r a few runs, and Bagshaw was got rid of cheaply. But with the arrival at the wicket of Storer, as the partner of Chatterton, the prospects of the visitors began to look up considerably. There was no beating about the bush while the two professionals were to­ gether. They took the bowling in charge and put on 155 in an hour-and-a-half, at the end of which Chat­ terton was bowled for a wonderfully good innings of 9J. Stumps were then drawn, with Storer 79 not out. For nearly three-quarters of an hour on Tuesday play was delayed by rain. When the game was resumed Storer soon reached his hundred and although most of the rest of the team made small scores, a very freely hit innings of 63, not out, by J. Wright at the end of the innings made the show of the tai very satisfactory. With the prospect of an innings defeat before them, Hampshire began moderately well, but though Webb and Mr. Steele made a very valuable stand their efforts were unavailing. At the end of the innings Baldwin put on 31 and the in n iD g s defeat was saved. H ampshire . First innings. Second in n iD gs.

Thf re was a full day’s cricket at Lord’s on Monday, although the weather was cold and cheerless. At the end of the day Somersetshire had a distinct advan­ tage, being 115runs on with eight wickets to fall. This dt-sirhble position was chiefly brought about by the }ielp of Tyler and Robson, who were not put on first, and the batting of two men, Mr. F. A. Phillips and Robson. Mr. Phillips was very useful to the Somer­ setshire team last season, but he has very seldom played such a good inniogs as his 73. In p irtnership with Robson he put on 123 runs. Things had been going very badly with Somersetshire before these two men came together, five wickets being down for only 35. and after they were separated the bowlers once more got the upper hand very quickly. The Middlesex batting was disappointing, and the old traditions of the ^ide were not kept up except by Mr. Ford, who hit hard as usual in making his 22. The only other innings of any importan?e was the steady 38 of Rawlin. With a lead of 80, Somerset soon lost Mr. L. C. H. Palairet and Mr. Hill, both caught at the wicket, but at the end of the day they held a com­ manding lead. There was no play on Tuesday, nor on Wednesday. S omersetshire . L. C H.

Played at Nottingham on May 30, 31, and June 1. Abandoned. Th s match still holds its own as one of the most interesting of the season, although Notts is no longer as strong as it used to be. while Surrey has its days of weakness. The weather was not very promising when the game I egan, but the wicket was good. Until luncheon Surrey were in clover, forafterthe di»mi sal of Brockwell for one run, Abel and Haywardbecame s-o firmly settled by the very accurate bowling of Attewell and Wass, that when at the end of an hour or so a change was made, they were able to make runs with some ease. As usual, Hayward scored much the quicker, although neither batsman played slow cric :et after the first hour. Rain fell during lunch time, and when play had been in progress fora quarter of an hour afterwards, a drizzle caused an adjournment. Abel was then not out 44. and Hay­ ward not out 66. The drizzle kept steadily on without ever amounting to a downpour, but no more cricket was possible on the first day. On Tuesday morning, just before the time for resuming play, rain again came down, but in the course of the day a little cricket was possible-enough to enable Hayward to reach his hundred. There was no play on Wednes­ day. S urrey . Brockwell, c Pike, b Attewell ................. 1 Abel, b Dixon ..........51 D. L. A.
