Cricket 1898

J uly 14, 1898. CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OP THE GAME SUSSEX v. SUfiREY. GEORGE BEAN’ S BENEFIT MATCH. Played at Brighton on July 11, 12 and 13. Surrey won by ten wickets. In delightful weather, which promised well for the success of Bean’s benefit match, Sussex bad the advantage of batting first against Surrey, though they can hardly be said to have made the best use of their opportunity. Mr. Brann, who has not been quite as safe a bat as usual lately, only made 14, and Mr. Fry, who generally does well, was out for 8. Mr. Newham, too, did not keep up the form which he has recently shown, and it was left for the captain and Killick to make most of the runs. Killick played a remarkably good innings. As the runs had not been made at all quickly, Surrey h*»d less than an hour’s batting, during which they did well, only losing one wicket for 62. Abel was reserved for the morrow. On Tuesday, nearly every Surrey man made some runs, but although there were several occasions when a long partnership seemed almost a certainty, there were no very big scores. The Sussex total was exceeded by 67 runs. In their second innings the home team began fairly well, but when Richardson got rid of Mr. Brann, Mr. Murdoch, and Mr. New­ ham with successive balls, a rot set in. Mr. Fry was the only man who could make a stand ; he played a wonderfully good game. The match was over early on Wednesday. S u s s e x . First innings. Second innings. C. B.

Except for good cricket by Major Poore, Mr. Steele and Mr. Heseltine the Hampshire first innings was most disappointing. Most of the big men in the Somersetshire team did very little, but Captain Hedley and Mr. Trask were in good form. Hamp­ shire were more than a hundred runs behind, and began their second innings so badly that a very severe defeat Jseemed certain. Four wickets were down for 16. Happily for the coun y the tail played up very finely indeed, especially Mr. Barrett, Mr. Heseltine. and Mr. Robinson. Even then Somerset­ shire seemed certain of a victory, and when stumps were drawn on Tuesday they were only 63 ruos behind, with seven wickets in hand. But in the very first over yesterday Tate bowled Lieutenant Hicbley, Mr. Woods, and Mr. Trask, and at once Hampshire began to have a chance of winning. The finish of the match was most exciting, for each man made a few runs, and Tyler looked like pulling the match out of the fire for Somerset. H a m p s h ir e . First innings. MajorR. M.
