J une 15, 1899. CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME 207 G L O U C E S T E R S H IR E v. W A R W I C K ­ S H IR E . P la yed at B irm in gh am on Ju n e 12, 13, & 14. D ra w n . Despite the continued absence of Dr. Grace, the Gloucestershire team greatly distinguished itself on the first day of this match, putting together 356 runs for the loss of only eight wickets. For this they had chit fly to thank the first three men. Mr. Troup and W rathall opened the innings in fine style. They put on 156 for the first wicket in about two hours and a- quarter, by very good cricket indeed, and Mr. Townsend completed the discomfiture of the bowlers, finding in Mr. Rice a mos1. useful partner. Mr. Townsend was still batting when stumps were drawn, with 119 to hiscn dit. On Tuesday he was able to increase this by 48 as P*p ill stayed with him, not by any means as a mere onlooker. The bowling of Warwickshire was very disappointing; on the other hand the bowling of Paish was such as to give much gratification to the committee and captain, who are fighting a hard battle just now. In the follow-on Warwickshire gave a sp endid display of batting, and there was not a failure in the team. The weak Gloucestershire bowling was soon mastered, and Warwickshire not only staved off defeat, but were able to declare. G l OUCESTERSHIRE. W . Troup, b Forester 83 j J. A. Healing,b W .

SURREY v. OXFORD UNIVERSITY. Played at Oxford on June 12, 13, and 14. Surrey won by five wickets. The Oxford team was much weaker than usual owing to the absence o f sevtral men in the schools, and also of Mr. Stocks, while Surrey were without Lockwood anl Mr. Crawford. It was a great stroke of luck for the Oxford men when they got rid of both Brockwell and Abel for five runs between them, and although Hayes played a good innings, there was nothing remarkable in the scoring until Mr. Leveson- Gower, an old Oxonian, and Mr. H. B. Richardson f at together when live wickets had fallen for 122. his partnership, however, produced 157 runs, both men playing very tine cricket, and when it was ended the Surrey captain made runs very quickly. Mr. Gower’s splendid innings of 155 was made in three hours and forty minutes. Oxford had a few minutes’ battirg before stumps were drawn, but were fortu­ nate enough not to lose a wicket. Despite the absence of so many of their best men they gav*» an excellent account of themselves on Tuesday, Mr. Champain being in particularly fine form, but they h*d to follow on, and al'hough several members of the team did wtll, there was no big score, so that Surrey had what looked on paper an easy task. For a short time there seemed a possibility that it would prove to"» hard for them, as four wickets were down for le s than 50. F urrey . First innings. Second innings.

W ith no fewer than three victories to their credit and only three losses, the Sussex men are in a position which must feel very strange to them. There seemed a very fair chance that there would be a new edition of one of ihe long paitnerships between Shrewsbury and (iunn, bui wz.en once these two men were separated there was no difficulty with the rest of the team. Ranjitsinhji was in good form with the ball, and after Fry and Brann had m ale an exoellent start in the Sussex first inniogs, he gave one of his most perfect exhit itions of baiting, assisted for some time by Kiliick. Bis innings of 178 was made in three hours and forty minutes. The tail was once more a very long one, and but for a valuable stand by Tate with Banjitsinhji it failed entirely. Alas that it should be necessary to include Murdoch and Newham among the tail—at least on this occasion! Hussex had the very satisfactory lead of 167 on the first innings, but by the way in which Shrewsbury and Mr. Dixon started when Notts went in again it seemed evident that the lead would not be Of much value. After Mr. Dixon went. Gunn and Shrewsbury played out time Yesterday it turned out that; tha promised long partnership between them had only been deferred. For hours the two famous Notts batsmpn kept the field hard at work, until there was no longer any p »s>ibili y of defeat in view. On the other hand th^y hardly scored quickly enough— though their batting was t y no means tedious—to offer mu h prospect of victory. The partnerwhip produced 2<8 runs, and eventually Notts were able to decl*re, iu ihe vain hope that Sussex might oollapse. N O TT8. Fir-t innings. Second innings.
