Cricket 1902

282 CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. J u l y 17, 1902. T w ic e this season Ranjiteinbji has ousted everything else from the contents bills of the evening papers. The first lime was when he made his 231 not out against Essex, and the second time was on Tuesday after his 234 not out against Surrey at Hastings. It was a case of Ranjitsinhji everywhere, and the rest of the great men of the world nowhere. There has not been another instance during the season when a cricketer has monopolised the space on the contents bills. A n o t h e r case of all ten wickets in an innings. F. R. Cobb was the successful bowler in this match. The match which was played on Saturday last between the Carlton and Trowbridge Clubs, F. R. C. was playing for the former. He got three of the Trowbridge batsmen in four balls. A c c o r d in g to Tuesday’s papers Major R. M. Poore is among the officers the “ Canada ” is bringing home from Cape Town, now that peace is restored in South Africa. The “ Canada ” left Cape Town some week or ten days ago, and is due, according to the official pronounce­ ment, at Southampton on Friday or Saturday of next week. As far as one hears, the arrangements for the visit of a team of Oxford Univer­ sity cricketers to India during next winter are progressing in a satisfactory manner. The fact of the tour was intimated in “ Gossip ” a long time ago, and this is merely to report progress. It is de­ cided, I under stand, that the party will leave Marseilles in the ss. “ Caledonia ” on October 31st. D u r in g the match between Surrey and Sussex at the Central Ground, Hastings, this week, 1427 runs were scored for twenty-one wickets. This is a record for England, the previous best being 1410 in Sussex v. Oxford University, at Brighton, in June 1895. The first class cricket record for the world is 1739 in New South Wales v. Stoddart’s team in February 1898 at Sydney, but this match lasted for several days. I n Tuesday’8 cricket at Hastings 561 runs were scored for the loss of three wickets. One of the many noticeable features of the match was that Fry and Vine put up 238 for the first Sussex wicket, and! Abel and Hayward 246 for the first Surrey wicket. B y scoring 131 for London County against the M.C.C. on Tuesday, Dr. W. G. Grace brought the total of hundreds made by him during his career to 200. RESULTS OF PAST ETON AND HARROW MATCHES. 1805.

Seventy-sevenmatches have been played, of whichEton have won twenty-eight, Harrow thirty-three, and sixteen have been drawn. This is the generally pub­ lished record, but Harrow men otject very strongly to the game in 1805 being treated as a regular contest between the two schools, contending that it is no more correct to count that than the fixture in 1857 for boys under twenty, which has been rejected. T. G. O. Cole’s 142 in 1897 was the thirteenth three- figure innings in the matches between the schools, and the highest but one in ihe whole series. The previous great scores were E. Bayley, 152 in 1841; A . K . Watson, 135 in 1885; A. W . Ridley, 117 in 1871; C. P. Foley, 114 in 1886 ; W . F. Forbes, 113 in 1876; A . W . T. Daniel, 112 not out in 1860; C. J.
