South Africans won by six wickets. Although an eleven representing Liverpool and District seldom contaios many m en w ho play in first- class cricket, it is generally pretty strong. It gave an excellent account of itself on M onday against the South Africans, leading by 14 on the first innings, and being 99 ahead with seven wickets in hand when stum ps were drawn. Perhaps the best cricket o f the day was show n by Llew ellyn, w ho played a lively innings, and saved his side from w hat looked like being a bad breakdown. F or L iverpool Mr. Ain&cough, the Orm skirk am ateur, was in good form in both innings. The South Africans, as usutl, played up w ell in their second inniD gs, M r. Tancred, M r. H athom and M r.

As in the m atch against Cam bridge Surrey gave several m en a rest, giving another trial to M r. H . S. Bush, M r. von Ernsthausen, H olland, and Smith. Surrey were batting nearly all day, and m ade runs at a great pace. A bel was dism issed with the second ball of the m atch, but M r. Bush played w ell, and then there was a long partnership between H olland and Hayes, w hich produced 161 runs in an hour and a-half. B oth men played splendid cricket, Hayes especially driving with great pow er, while Holland, after he had once got settled, w as exceedingly good on the leg side. H olland was at the w ickets for tw o hours and a-quarter fo r his 104, and Hayes about exactly the same tim e for his 121. B y the tim e that H ayes was out the O xford bow ling was som ewhat dem oralised, but H ayward was not to be tem pted to take any risks, and played his usual gam e w ith great success. Tow ards the end o f the innings M r. Leveson-G ow er, Lees, and Richardson com pleted the dem oralisation o f the bowlers, the two latter putting on 54 fo r the last w icket in twenty m inutes. O xford had the bat fo r ten m inutes, and passed through the ordeal w ithout losing a wicket, M r. M unn and M r. K . A . W illiam s putting on nine runs. On Tuesday m orning things did not. go ve»y w ell for O xford, and at lunch tim e half their wickets were dow n for 138 runs. The batting was cautious and w ithout m uch life, and no one seemed quite com ­ fortable with the bowling. M r. W yld played a good innings after lunch, but a follow -on was necessary, and by the tim e that stum ps were drawn O xford were hopelessly out of the running. S u r r e y . A bel, b M unn 0 H. S.

T o t a l............: YORKSHIRE v. KENT. Played at Bramall Lane on June 24, 25 and 26. Yorkshire won by 212 runs. K ent were not able to put their strongest team in the field, the ’ Varsity contingent and M r. Baker being absent. The gam e did not run as favourably for Yorkshire as usual, fo r although they w on the toss, for the fourth or fifth tim e in succession, and began exceedingly well, a fine display o f batting by Mr. M erchant at the end o f the day placed K ent in an excellent position. The w icket was slow , and when the hundred went up for Yorkshire for the loss o f but one wicket, K ent seemed in for a bad time. Tunnicliffe played adm irable cricket, at tim es hitting brilliantly ; his 64 runs were m ade in eighty m inutes. But then came a sudden change over the game, ow ing to the excellence o f the bow ling o f Mr. M asoD, who was very difficult to get away, and at lunch tim e the score was 141 fo r six wickets. L ord Hawke and Rhodes afterwards m ade useful scores and the total cam e to 201. W hen K ent w ent in three wickets soon fell for 22, and things did not g o at all well until M r. Marchant joined A lec Hearne, and began to play a delightful innings. H e did not let the grass grow under his feet and for once the Yorkshire bowlers found their m aster. H e reached his fifty in forty m inutes and was not out 64 at the close o f the day. M eanwhile A lec Hearne had been steadily keeping up his wicket, and was not out 26, the total being 148 for five wickets, so that on paper K ent had an advantage. But the K ent tail is hardly on a level with that of Yorkshire, and on Tuesday m orning tbe end soon came, but not until M r. M archant had succeeded in passing his hundred by cricket as pleasing as that w hich he had shewn on the previous evening. H e was at the wickets for ninety-five m inutes only. W ith the unusual experience of having a balance against them , although it was only a sm all one, Yorkshire lost Tunnicliffe before the runs were knocked off. A t lunch tim e Yorkshire were only 65 runs ahead with four wickets dow n, but then the rest o f the team played well to a m an, and K ent were left yesterday w ith the difficult task o f scoring 293. In the first half-an-hour they lost three wickets for 23, and they then w ent to pieces. Y o r k s h ir e , First innings.
