Cricket 1901

262 CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. J uly 11, 1901. batsmen failed completely, and there seemed more than a reasonable chance that the tide would not be able to p'ay out time. The one great exception was C. H. B. Marstam, who, while his comrades were falling one after the other, not only kept up his wicket but made runs. H alf the side weTe out at about five o’clock for only 51 runs, and at this period of the game Cambridge seemed almost certain to win. Marsham and Crawfuid added 82 in 20 minutes, but when the latter was dismissed therewas still anhourand a-half left for play and only four wickets to go down. When things were in this desperate state Williams joined Marsham and the two men had very nearly Baved the game when the former was dismissed at about a quarter to seven, after playing an admiral le innings. There was just the possibility that Cam­ bridge might come with a rush, but the next man Hollins was missed in the slips, and the bowlers were hardly capable of making a grand coup, so that when time was up O xf rd had still three wickets in hand. Marsham carried his bat through the innii gs, just reaching his hundred before stumps were drawn. He was at the wickets for about three hours, and unquestionably saved his side from a severe defeat. He playtd the very best of cricket. C a m b r id g e . First innings. Second innings. E. R. W ilson (Rugby and Trinity), b Williams ..118 cW y ld ,b K n o x 27 H. K .

L A N C A S H I R E v . S U S S E X . P la y e d at O ld T ra fford on J u ly 4, 5 and 6. Sussex w o n b y 94 runs. Just before the match began, Sharp, the Lancashire bowler, sprained his leg, and his place in the eleven was taken by Hoi?and. This accident weakened the attick of Lancashire very considerably. Under the circumstances Lancashire did very well indeed to get rid of Sussex for less than three hundred, and for this happy state of affairs they had chit fly to thank W ebb, who bowled admirably. For orce Yine did not stay lorg, but a fine paitnership between Mr. Fry and Ranjitsiohji followed his dismissal; it produced 124 runs in an hour and a half, both men playing the most delightful cricket. So easily were they playing the bowling that no one would have been greatly surprised if they had kept in all day, but when Ranjitsinbji went Fry did not long survive him, aiid the only other long partnership was that which pro­ duced 80 in three-quarters of an hour between Mr. Newham and Mr. Goldie. Mr. Goldie played biil- liant cricket, and his partner scored much more quickly than usual. Nothing much was done after this; Laiica shire had an hour and a-quarter’s batting, and so well did Mr. E. E. Steel and Mr. Garnett make use of the t’me, that when stumps were drawn the total was 109 for tbe loss of two wickets, Mr. Garnett being not out €7. Thus at this stage of the game Lancashire seemed to have a great advantage. On tie follow kg morning Mr. Garnett continued to play very good cricket indeed, and with Tyldesley as a partner added 88 runs in fifty minutes. Eventually the bmateur was bowled by Vine for 110, his second highest score in first-class cricket, a very fine innings w. ich was put together in two hours and a-quarter. Up to this time tbe Lancashire batting had teen exceedingly bright and attractive, but W ard and Mr. Eccles, finairg thirgs were not going quite so well with their tide as had been hoped, adopted a very steady style of play. The er d, however, came much sooner than was expected, thanks to Vine’s leg breaks, which disposed of six battmen for 72 runs. Still, Lancashire had a lead of 25, and as they had got rid of four Sussex men for 214 (including Mr. Fry, Vine, and Mr Goldie) in the second innings, by the time that stumps were drawn they were not at all in a tad position, provided that Kanjitsinhji (who was not out 93) did not trouble them much on the next day. tu t, unfortunately for Lancashire, Ranjitsinhji was again in brilliant form, and receiving most useful assistance from Newham, he scored with great rapidity. The partnership between the two men, which had been unfinished overnight, eventually produced 110 runs, Newham havii g played remarkably good cricket for the second time in the m atct; his return to form this season has been very pronounced. After Newham was out Mold began to make his presence felt, but Panjitsinbji still went on until at last, with the total at 331 for seven wickets, he was able to declare the innings closed. He himself had scored more than half the runs and had been batting for three hours and fifty minutes, his hits including twenty-one 4’s. Lancashire did badly in their task of playing out time, but from the general failures Mr. Garnett and Tyldesley, both of whem had made runs in the first innings, stood out very prominently. The amateur was again in splendid form, and the professional about at his best. In partnership they put on 148 in eighty minutes and were both out with the total at 153. There seemed no reasonab e probability that Sussex could get the remaining wickets, but Vine and Relf bowled so well that the inLings was over by about five o’clock. S ussex . First innings.
