Cricket 1898

226 CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OP THE GAME. Junk 23, 1898. SURREY v. OXFORD UNIVERSITY. Played at the Oval on June 20 and 21. Surrey won by an innings and three runs. r But for a remarkable piece of bowling 1y Mr. B. J. T. Bossnquet, the Oxford team might have had the experience of having about the largest total of the season scored against them for when Surrey bad lost only four wickfrts the total was 3'3. But after the next ticket had put on another 50 runs there was such a collapse in the batting ihnt everjbody was taken by surprise. Mr. Bosanquet had been put on two or three times without success, but with the score at 383 for four wickets he was given another trial. The upshot of this was that he took the next five wickets for six runs. It is true that Smith, Richardsoa and Bayes were among the victifiM, bat the other two were Mr. Jephson and Mr. 1\eveson- Gower, so that the young bowler is decidedly to be congratulated on his performance. Before the col­ lapse took place pome remarkably good batting had been seen. Brockwell p’ayed a beautiful ioninas of 119, in quite his best style; Lockwood batted in the form which he showed some years ago, and hardly made a mistake in putting together 108; while Mr. Crawford, who was given another trial, hit veiy hard and very well, his drives being particularly good. The innings came to a close in time to leave a quarter of an hour for Oxford to bat. In these few minutes they lost two of their best men—Mr. Fane and Mr. Bannon—for six runs, a most discouraging look-out. From the bad begining they did not recover, at least in the first innings, and only two men played up to their form -the Captain and Mr. Stocks. Mr. Cun- liffe’s innings of 70 was a very fine display. Follow­ ing on, 270 runs behind, the Oxford men played up much better than before, especially Mr. Bannon, Mr. Foster, and Mr. Bromley-Martin. Richardson bowled bettor than he has done for some time. After the match Mr. Bosanquet was awarded his “ blue.” S urrey .

The last wicket did not raise the total very much, and E-sex began their seccnd innings with a lead of 57. This time. Carpenter played very finely, but, ■with the exceDlion of Mr. McGahey and Russell, the rest of the team did very little. Nevertheless, Derbyslire had to make 250 runs, but cou’ d only get about half of them. E ssex . First innings. Second innings, H. G. Owen, c F. DavidsoD, b Bestwick....................61 c G.

The batting of the E-sex team, in the first innings was a little disappointing, for after Mr. Owen and Carpenter had both played excellent cricket there was quite a breakdown, and the innings produced by no means as many runs as might have been expected. Derbyshire, however, could do very little when they went in, and at the close of play on Monday had lost FIXTURES. JUNE. Lord’s, M.C.C. and Ground v. Cambridge Univ. Oval, Surrey v.

There is hardly any couLty which can point to such an in-ard-out jeeord as.Sussex during rectnt years. The team is capable of any soit of peiformance. It may upset the calculators of its strongest opponei>ts; it may collapse in the most inexplicable manner agairst the weakest. The chief batsmen on the Cambridge side have not, as a rule, covered themselves with glory this season, I ut most of them came off t gainst Sussex. Mr. Uurnup, as usual,, pliyed a most valualle innings, and Mr. Winter, who, witlv ut any flourish of trumpets to herald his arrival at the Univer.-ity, has proved himself to be a fine bat of the hard-hitting type, was in great form f» r 80. Mr. Jessop, Mr.Marrio t, and Mr. Coode also, did well. But after all there wss apparently nothing in a total of 313 to crow about, for it did not seem at all likely that Sussex would crumple up before the moderate Iowling of theUniveisity. They beganbadly enough, however, Itsing three of their best batsmen for 45 before stumps were drawn, and followed up this want of success by only scoring 127 in their first innings. Of this total, Mr. Fry was responsible for 42 ; he a7so played an excellent innings for 54 in the follow-on, which was well lacked ip by Mr. Brann. 1 he r« st of the team did practically nothing.
