Cricket 1900

1 5 0 CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. M ay 24, 1900. LANCASHIRE v. WARWICKSHIRE. Played at Liverpool Oil May 17 and 18. Lancashire won by ten wickets. "While nearly all the first-cla?s cricketers were er-joying the luxury of batting: on a hard and good wicket, the Warwickshire men found ihemselves on a wicket so much in favour of the bowlers that they must have wished they had taken the risky course of pu'ting their opponents in first. Mold was nearly irresistible, and at no time did anyone get an approach to mastery over him. On an improved pitch Lancashire did so well that when stumps were drawn on the first evening they were 74 runs ahead, with four wickets still in hand, thanks chief!/ t> some very fine batting by Mr. C. R. Bartley and Tyldesley. The lead was increased to 132 on the following morning. Warwickshire ag^in failed to do themselves justice, but W . G. Q u»if i stuck to his guns for about two hours and a half, and did bis best to put his side in a better position. W arw ick sh ire First innings.

The other five are J. P. Winterbothara, the bowler of last year, R. S. Bridge, K. R. P. Fry, A. H. D. Tillard and R. C . Clarke. Above the average himself the captain’s all­ round cricket should make for the foundation of a fairly good eleven, with only five new hands. M AY. 17. Cheltenham, v. Hertford College, Oxford 26.

Only four old colours remain for the foundation of the F ettes C olleg e eleven this year. The quartette, however, include D. G. Schultze and W. A. C. Lees, two of the best bowlers of 1899. Generally, the prospects are hopeful. M AY . 19. Fettes, v. Brunswick 26. Mavisbank, v. Lasswade JUNE. Raeburn Place, v. Academy Fettes, v. Noetics Fettes, v. Merchiston Fettes, v.

H a il e y h u r y had a particularly good batting side last year and is likely to be fairly strong in the same line this summer. E. C. Smith (the captain), and W. G. Bignell remain, as do R. Lee, F. A. Heymann, P. F. Reed, and E. C. Hodges of the eleven of 1899. Several of the younger players give promise. The doubts are again about the bowling, which was weak last year. M AY. 19. Haileybury, v.

Gill, the most reliable bat as well as one of the best bowlers of 1899. Besides him there are four other old colours, A. A. Hathorn, the hon. sec., G. H. Salaman, W. R. Ben- ningfield, and E. G. R. Esdaile. L . H. Read, the captain of 1899, has a younger brother who is a promising bowler and likely to get into the eleven. All round the side bids fair to be pretty good ; at present the want is a wicket-keeper. M AY. 26. Lancing, v. Masters JUNE. 2. Lancing, v. G. Head, Esq.’s X I. 4. Lancing, v. hev. Nelson’s X I. 9.
