Played at Worcester on May 19, 20 &21. Worcestershire won by 35 runs. There was a full day’s cricket at Worcester, on Monday, and 298 runs were made. The big innings of the day was that of Arnold, who in pretty style made 94 runs in a little more than three hours by the most patient of cricket. When stumps were drawn Worcestershire were 150 runs behind with 8 wickets in hand. Rain during the night made the wicket soft when play was resumed on Tuesday, but the Worcestershire men did not experience any very great difficulty in making runs, and when the innings came to an end Warwickshire only had a lead of two runs. On Tuesday evening Worcestershire seemed quite out of the running, for they had only made 89 with half their wickets down, and were thus 64 rims o n . But the tail played up in the most determined manner yesterday, and Worcestershire had to make 178 to win, a task which proved much more difficult than it seemed at first. There was a most interest­ ing struggle for the supremacy all through the innings, but Worcestershire eventually had the best o f it. W a r w ic k s h ir e . W o r c e s t e r s h ir e .

There was only an hour’s cricket on Monday at Bramall Lane, during which Lancashire scored 34 for the loss of two important men, Maclaren and Tyldesley. On Tuesday the innings soon came to a conclusion for the addition of only 38 runs. When the Yorkshiremen went in they found Barnes in great form with the ball, and very difficult to play, but nearly every man helped to swell the total by double figures, and F. S. Jackson played a cricketer’s innings for 33. In a minority of 76 Lancashire began their second innings badly, losing two wickets for 11 runs and never recovered from this bad start. Jackson’s fine bowling had much to do with the result. L a n c a s h ir e . First innings. Rhodes Washington, Ward, < H aig h ........................... Tyldesley. b Hirst Hallows, b Rhodes A .

Played at Leicester on May 19, 20 and 21. Australians won by seven wickets. When the Australians were in England in 1899 Jones and Noble made an example of the Leicester­ shire batsmen in the second innings, and on Monday the same two bowlers disposed of the county team for 69 runs. On a slow wicket Jones bowled very much slower than usual, and proved to be so difficult that he is hardly likely to be left out in the future when matches are played in wet weather. W e have sometimes suggested that Richardson, before he retires, might probably with advantage to himself as well as Surrey, try the effect of bowling at a moderate pace with easy action. A t the end of the Leicestershire innings the Australians seemed to hold the result of the match in the hollow of their hand, but W oodcock, who did not bowl at a moderate pace, had to be reckoned with, and he dismissed Duff, Hill and Gregory in four balls, only just missing the hat trick; he had only bowled seven balls when the third wicket fell. So far things looked very well for Leicestershire, but in dealing with the present Australian team it is well to dispose of Trumper and Darling, not to mention the tail, before you begin to count your chickens. In this innings Trumper and Darling made a very useful stand, and the latter was not out 21 when stumps were drawn, with the total at 43 for four wickets. There was heavy rain in the night, and the wicket was so soft in the morning that the game was not resumed until half-past two. Darling did not last long, and at 76 he, as well as Noble, Carter and Hopkins, were all out. Then Jones came in to upset all calculations, and thanks to a couple of missed catches in the long field, he put up a most useful 40 in a very short time. The Australians had a lead of 75. This was cleared off by Leicestershire for the loss o f three wickets, W ood and Whitehead playing particularly good cricket. But by the end of the day six wickets had fallen for 117, so that Leicestershire were only 42 runs on. The tail did not do much, and the Australians had not a very difficult task set them in their second innings. They had chiefly to thank Jones and Noble for their easy victory.
