J unk 12, 19 02. CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 197 SURREY v. CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY. Played at Cambridge on June 5, 6 and 7. Abandoned. There were several alterations in the Surrey team, vhich was not altogether at its strongest, the absence of Lockwood rraking the bowliDg very weak. The wicket was soft and not difficulc when Cambridge went in on Thursday last, and the Cambridge men kept in all day. '1he most noticeable feature of the day’s cricket was ihe partnership of Dowson and Harper, both Surrey m en; neither of them seemed happy at fiist, tut when they had once settled down the bowling presented few difficulties to them, and in the course of an hour and three-quarters they put on 115 runs together. All the rest of the team who batted, with the exception of Ebden, scored double figures, and when stumps were drawn at 5.80, on account of the boat races, the total was 255 for eeven wickets. On Friday there was no play on account of rain. There was just a chance, after th^ game was resumed on Saturday, that Surrey might be disposed of twice, but the Camt ridge captain preferred to let his team continue their inniDgs for some time. The Cam­ bridge score was'raised to *93 for seven wicket?, Blaker playing an excellent not out innings of 64, and then, after a heavy shower, the innings was declared closed. W hen Surrey went in it was a quarter to one, and three wickets fell before lunch for 41. The bowlers always had the best of matters, and for a time after lunch they were in clover, disposing of Captain Bush, Hayward and brockwell for an addi­ tional 7 runs. The tail played up a liitle better, and Jepbson stuck to one end with grim determination, but a follow on was necessary. J ust after the second innit gs was begun there was a thunderstorm, and although it was afterwards possible to play for a few minutes the rain came down again at half-past five, and the game was abandoned.

Played at Lord’s on June 5, 6 and 7. Abandoned. Having won the toss for Notts, Mr. A . O. Jones, thinking that the wicket would improve, sent Middlesex in first. On the day’s play Middlesex had a little the best of matters, for they had made 161 runs, and had dismissed seven Notts man for 114, At one time Mr. Jones’* policy in putting Middlesex in first seemed likely to prove a great failure, for when only half their wicket* were down, Middlesex had scored 145 runs. For this they had chiefly to thank G. W . Beldam and W . P. Robertson, the former playing a careful and scientific game, and the latter taking his chancts. During their partnership, 78 runs were put on, Robertson being responsible for 60 of them. When Anthony was put on for a second time, he speedily brought about the close of the innings, for in five overs and a ball he took the remaining five wickets for only seven runs. For Notts, Iremonger played a very attractive game, and received valuable assistance from Shrewsbury and J . Gunn. Notts, with only two men out for 94. had the best of the situation, but in a short time five more wickets had fallen for an additional 20 runs. There was no play at Lord’s either on Friday or Saturday. M iddlesex . lbw, b A. P. Douglas, b Wass 4 B . B. Chinnery, c Iie- monger, b Hu11am 15 B. J. T. Bosanquet, c Hallam, b Wass ... 17 G. W .

Played at Oxford on June 5, 6 and 7. Abandoned. W . L. Knowles and J. R. Mason each played a fine innings for Kent on the first day, during which Kent completed an innings and dismissed two Oxford batsman for 56. There was no play on Friday. On Saturday 22 runs had teen made when a thunder- stoim caused the game to be abandoned. Just before this, Dillon, who had played excellent cricket, was obliged to retire, a ball from Blythe lun- ning up his bat and hitting him severely in the f ce. K ent .
