Cricket 1898

CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. J xjly 7, 1898. CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY v. LIVERPOOL. 1’layed at Aigburtb on July 4, 5, and 6. Cambridge won by ten wickets. Against a strong Liverpool team, Cambridge batted in a totally diffr rent style fiom that which was the subject of so much comment in the ’Varity mntch. Mr. Mitchell was included in the team, and Mr. E. A. C. Druce ; but the actual run-getting was done entirely by the nine Blues who played at Lords. Mr. Winter and Mr. Coode were the two chief scorers, and both played very fine ciicket indeed. Mr. B awkins, who was a failure as a bowler in the ’Varsity match, was in excellent form, and he bowled so well that Liverpool had to follow on, although half-a- dozen of the team made good scores. The second innings of Liverpool was productive of good cricket, but Cambridge had a light task before them when they went in again to make 58. Some remarkable batting was shown by Mr. Mitchell, who left his partner far behind from the first. Mr. Kemble can still keep wicket very finely. C amhridge U niversity . 0 F.

Ml DDLESEX v. LEICESTERSHIRE. Played at Leicester on July 4, 6 and 6. Middlesex won by nine wickets. For this match each county made changes in its utual team. Pougher could not play for Leicester­ shire, while Tomlin was left out. and their places were taken by Mr. Stocks and Agar. Middlesex appeared without Mr. Webbe and Webb, and included Mr. Cunliffe and Sir T. C. O’Brien in their eleven. It is not often that Leicestershire have the oppor­ tunity of batting firt>t if the wicket is any use to them, but on this occasion it was certainly to their advan­ tage to go in first. They were seen at their best. Only three men made single figures, while Mr. Wood, King Brown. Mr. Joyce, Agar and Mr. de Trafford all distinguished themselves. The captain’s innings was worth seeing, for his runs were made in the style for which he is famous. Now that he has got a fair start he may come back to his old form, which would make avast amount of difference to his county. The Leicestershire innings came to a close, just before the time for drawing stumps, for 312 runs, of which more than a third were obtained off the bowling of Mr. Cunliffe, who only took two wickets. On Tues­ day, Middlesex began badly enough, quickly losing Mr. Warner, Mr. Bavman and Mr. Ford, but the appearance of the game was quite altered by Mr Stoddart and Rawlin, who put on 124 during their partnership in the fast time of an hour and thirty-five minutes. Sir T. C. O’Brien was going very strong when he was run out, and Trott quickly made 35. Mr. Stoddart kept in until nearly the end of the innings. He had batted in his old style, and almost as well as ever? although he was missed three or four times. During the entire innings one was reminded of the days when nearly all Middlesex men played brilliant and attractive cricket. Leicester­ shire had to go in with a very small balance against them, and fared badly. Mr. Warner andMr. Stoddart played a very fine game when Middlesex went in to knock off the runs.

Essex won by an inniDgs and 173 runs. At the end of the first day’s cricket Essex had gained an immense advantage. They had got their opponents out for lf6 on a wicket which although it was good helped the bowlers a little, and had got within 20 of their total without losing a wicket. Only two men on the Derbyshire side did themselves justice, and the rest were altogether at sea. Mr. Wright and Storer both played splendid cricket, while Kortright was in great form for Essex with the ball. Essex had about two hours’ batting. Duiing this time Mr. Owen and Carpenter put on no less thau 146, completely collaring the bowling. They both only just missed their hundred on Tuesday morning, and both played brilliant cricket. The partnership between them produced 194 runs in three hours and a-quarter; they were out within a few minutes of each other. Mr. Perrin and Mr. McGahey now took up the running. Their partnership for the third wicket produced one more run than the first. The two young batsmen soon took charge of the bowling, and by excellent cricket brought the total to 413, when Mr. Perrin was bowled by Storer for a perfect innings of 115, Mr. McGahey followed him after only four more runs had been put on. He also had played a great game, At the end of day Essex had scored 497 for five wickets. They declared on Wednesday morn­ ing and met with very little opposition from Derby­ shire. Chatterton and Storer, however, played well. D e r b y s h ir e . First innings. Second innings. S. H. Evershed, b Bull ... 1 c Russell, b Bull 11 L. G.

Yorkshire won by seven wickets. Everything succeeds nowadays with the Yorkshire team. Although Sussex put their strongest eleven into the field, and batted first on a good wicket, York­ shire had by the end of the day got rid of them for a moderate score, and, for the loss of only three wickets, were not far behind their opponents’ total. The Sussex men were all off colour except Mr. Fry, Mr. Newham, and Butt, and they gave a very disappointing exhibition of batting. Mr. Fry and Mr. Newham came together when the total was only 26 for three wickets, and for not parted until they increased it by 111 by cricket as good as one could wish for. At this time there seemed no particular reason why the Southern county should not make a pretty big score, but Baigh went on to bowl for the second time during the inniDgs and upset all calculations. As Tunnicliffe was able to take his place in the Yorkshire team again, Lord Bawke did not put himself in with Brown, despite the success which has attended his efforts in the last two matches when he has gone in first. Tunnicliffe was in fine form, and Denton and Wainwright were well set when stumps were drawn with the score at 139
