A ug . 3, 1899. CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME 321 D E R B Y S H I R E v . W O R C E S T E R S H IR E . FIRST MATCH BETWEEN THE TWO COUNTIES. P la y e d at D e rb y o n J u ly 31 and A u gu st 1 and 2. D ra w n . So well did Mr. Wright and Storer bat on Monday, and so well were they backed up by the rest of the team (although the scores were not as a rule large) taat Derbyshire ended their innings for a satisfactory totil. Worcestershire began batting on Tuesday morning. The two brothers, who made so many runs in both innings against Hampshire, were not success­ ful, but Arnold was in great form. He played splendid cricket, but, despite his efforts, there seemed a fair chance that the follow-on would not be saved, but the last wicket made a fine stand, putting on 70 runs. W ith a useful lead of 50, Derbyshire did well in the second innings, although Walter Sugg was the only man who made a very big Bcore. Me was in great form, and it is needless to say that the crowd enjoyed his fine batting, for when he gets going his play is very attractive. He was atth“ wickets a little more than two hours. When Derbyshire dec ared, Worcestershire had to make 314 in about three hours and a-half. D erbyshire . First innings. Second innings.

WARWICKSHIRE Played at Leicester on July 31, and August 1 and 2. Warwickshire wonbyan innings and 158runs. Although the Warwickshire men scored 333 for the loss o f but three wickets on Monday, they can hardly be said to have made the best possible use of their opportunities, for after Devey had fallen for a duck’s egg the weak Leicestershire bowling was collared, and was quite harmless for the rest of the d iy. But the batsmen were able to increase their averages very considerably. Kinnier made his first huudred in county cricket, and W . Uuaife followed up his hundred against Gloucestershire by scoring 101, while W . G. Quaife was half way to another hundred when stumps were drawn, with Diver almost level with him. Runs came much more quickly on the following morning. W . G. Quaife accomplished his object, but Diver only got within about two-thirds of his. At the end of the innings Bainbridge, Glover, and Santall made hay of the worn-out bowlintr, and the total was so large that defeat was out of the question, although under ordinary circumstances Leicester­ shire might have expected easily to make a draw. They began very badly indeed, losing four wickets for about 50, and although the tail p!ayed well they were hopele-sly in the rear when the innings ended. In the follow-on, Knight and W ood played splendid cricket, but their efforts were not backed up by any­ body else. W ARWICKSIIIRE.

NOTTS. Played at Bradford on July 31, Aug. 1 and 2. Drawn. Against the weak Not.s bowling the Yorkshiremen ran up a flee score on Monday, losing only six wickets for 447 runs. Everybody who went in made double figures. Jackson was batting for two hours and a-quarter for his admirable innings of 114, while Denton and Mitchell, who made their runs at about the same rate as Jackson, narrowly missed scoring a hundred each. Hirst *lso played a particularly good innings. The high rate of scoring was continued on the next morning, which is not to be wondered at when Mr. Ernest tfmith and Lord Hawke wei e among the successful batsmen. The latter in partnersh p with Brown (of Driffield) put on 72 runs in half-an- hour for the last wicket. It was not very encouraging to go in against a total of 562, but Notts set about their work with determination, and after Mr. Jones had been bowled for 20, Gunn and Shrewsbury put on about a hundred in p irtnership. Shrewsbury con­ tinued to play excellent cricket, finding no difficulty with any of the bowling. He found a very useful partner in Dench, and the two men roused the anger of the crowd by their steady play, though they were doing exactly what any other team would bave done under similar circumstances. A t the end of the day Notts had made 314 for four wickets, and, thanks to a continued partnership by Dench and Shrewsburv and a determined stand by J. Gunn, they saved the follow on, which was a great feat after going in against such a huge total. Shrewsbury’s remarkable innings lasted for about five hours and a-half. There was no interest in the match after this, for there was obviously no chance of finishing it. Y o r k s h ir e . First innings. Second innings. F. S.
