Cricket 1902

262 CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. J u l y 10, 1902. within a little of putting up a hundred for the first wicket for the second time in the match. But at 85 their partnership, which had not bpen productive of very interesting cricket, was dissolved by the dis­ missal of Findiay for 24. W yld did nothing, but Evans was in form, and, after Dillon had been disposed of for a second fine innings, entered upon a productive partnership with Marsham. Both men played attractive cricket, and quite mastered the Cambr dge bowling while they were together; they put on 82 runs in fifty-five minutes, b y the end of the day the Oxford total was 244 for Beven wickets, so that Cambridge were now 264 behind. The remaining three wickets soon fell on Saturday, and Cambridge found that they had to make 272 to win on a wicket on which the ball frequently got up very considerably. Happily for them the Oxford bowlers as a rule_ were quite unable to make use of their opportunities, and they either pitched the ball too far up or too short—a good length teemed out of their power. Ebden and W ilson began well enough, and then Day entered on a memorable innings, which, although it was not without faults, was most attrac­ tive from first to last. B e received valuable assist­ ance from Dowson, who played \ right cricket, but despite the weakness of the Oxford bowling there was m oie than a chance that the runs would not be made when Gilman came in. But Oilman was not nervous, and although the bowling was now at its btst he played excellent cricket, by no means letting the grabs grow under his feet. He was still at the wickets with Day when the runs were hit off, the latter having baited for three hours and a-quarter lor his 117 not out, an innings which was by far the best in the match ; it was quite a different class •i innings from that played by any other man except, perhaps, Marsham. As will be seen from “ G ossip” the Oxford captain changed his bowling very fre­ quently, and unluckily for his side without much method or judgment. O xford . First innings. E. W .

LEICESTERSHIKE V. NOT1S, Played at Leicester on July 3, 4 and 5. Notts won by 181 runs. The good fortunes which had attended Leicester­ shire this season deserted them last week, when the captain, after winning the toss, decided to put Notts in first. As far as the firtt day’s cricket was con­ cerned, this seemed likely to turn out not unsuccess­ fully, for against the Noils score of 168, Leicestershire had put up 147 for seven wickets: But on the next day things did not go so well, and, thanks chit fly to a fine stand by Jones and Iremonger, which produced 119 runs in an hour and twenty-five minutes, Notts were able to put their opponents in for the fourth innings of the match to make 263 runs on a wicket on which some rain had fallen in the afternoon. When stumps were drawn, Leicestershire had lost three men for 26, including Dr. Macdonald, and on Saturday they could do very little. N otts . First innings. A. O.

Although the Surrey men were without Abel and Lockwood, who were at Sheffield, they had no diffi­ culty in beating Derbyshire. A fine commencement was made for them by Hayward and Jephson, who put on 105 f 'r the first wicket in an hour and fifty minutes. Captain Bush was in great form, and towards the end of the day V. F. S. Crawford and Brockwell put on 120 runs without being separated ; the former was not out 96 and the latter not out 62. Total 897 for three wickets. On the next morning Crawford retired just after reaching his hundred, owing to a bad linger, and he did not take any further part in the match. He was batting for an hour and forty minutes, his partnership with Brock­ well producing 134 in less than an hour and a-half. Brockwell was the last man out for a very fine innings of 70, which was without fault. Against such a big total as 440 Derbyshire began nadly enough by losing three of their best men for 29. But then Wright and Ashcroft made a most valuable stand, and put on 67 for the fourth wicket. After­ wards Wood, Humphries and Hu'me helped to swell the total, but a follow-on was necessary, 223 runs in arrear. When stumps were drawn Derbyshire had knocked off 66 of these for the loss of one wicket, Needham being not out 34 and Storer not out 10. Both these men played the Surrey bowling easily enough on Saturday morning, and afterwards Lawton, hitting very hard at times, made 47, while the tail did pretty well. Nevertheless, despite their efforts, the task set to Surrey in their second innings was simple. S ubbey . First innings. D. L. A .
