After long years of waiting Derbyshire on Saturday gained their very first victory over Notts—their third victory in the Championship this season. They had made their position fairly secure by the end of the first day’s play, but they have been so often dis­ appointed of victory that, until the match was actually won, they cannot have felt really sesure. When they won the toss they lost Needham in the first over, but Wright and Storer then put up 88 runs in an hour and ten minutes for the second wicket. Then again things went badly with them for a time, for after Storer had been disposed of at 90, Wright was out at 101, and Ashcroft at 120. But Ollivierre was equal to the occasion, and played a splendid innings of 71 in an hour and a half, so that although the tail did nothing, the total was fairly good. Still it was thought that Notts would have no difficulty in beating it, and few can have expected that when stumps were drawn eight of their wickets would be down for 104. Only two Notts men, W. Gunn and Dixon, obtained anything like a mastery over the bowliog. On Friday the innings was soon over, Derbyshire having a lead of 117. Wright waa out for one in the second innings, but Needham did not fail a second time, while Storer and Olliviere again played excellent cricket. At the end Lawton made a very useful 36. Notts had now to make 316 to win and by the time that the day’s play ended their score was 110 for a couple of wickets. Jones played a brilliant innings. On Saturday Notts, with eight wickets in hand, still had 206 runs to make, but although W. Gunn, who was not out 23 overnight, fought splendidly for his side, Warren was in such good form with the ball that the remaining eight wickets could only produce 93 runs, and Derbyshire after all gained quite an easy victory.

The beat and longest stand of the innings was that between Steele and Sprot; it produced 103 runs in an hour. Sprot was most aggressive at times and in the course of his fine innings he made 30 runs off two consecutive overs from Tate. Altogether he was batting for an hour and three-quarters. Unfortu­ nately, on Saturday the last three men did not make enough runs to save the follow-on, and the result was disastrous, for although several men made a plucky effort to save the game, there was time for Sussex to win by ten wickets. If the follow-on had been saved, Hampshire would in all probability have made an honourable draw. S u s s e x . C. B.

SUSSEX y. HAMPSHIRE. Played at Brighton on July 9, 10 and 11. Sussex won hy ten wickets. No matter how badly the Hampshire men may have been doing, or how low they are in the championship table, they generally succeed in making Sussex go all the way. But their prospects of doing this were not very bright by the time that stumps were drawn at the end of the first day, for Sussex, who won the toes, had enj oyed themselves on a perfect wicket, and with only six men out had run up a total of 403. C. B. Fry and Vine helped coDsiderablytowards this satisfactory position by scoring 133 in an hour and three-quarters for the firut wicket, most of the runs comiDg from Fry, who was again in great form. Relf and Fry then put on 124 in about an hour and a half, and by the time that the pirtnership was dissolved by the dismissal of Relf, the bowjiog was about played out. Just before the tea interval Fry brought his score to 169, but after adding a single he was ciught at short slip. He had been batting for three hours and a quarter, and except that at the commenc ment of his innings he gave two tremendous chances of c and b in quick succeaion to Llewellyn, his batting was irreproachable, and the chances were of the kind which no man ever takes except by accident. It was not one of Ranjitsinhji’s days, but George Brann was in great form and when stumps were drawn was not out 62. On Friday morning he increased this score to 111, thus making his first hundred of the season ; he was at the wickets for two hours and forty minutes. Going in against the huge total of 492 the Hampshire men distinguished themselves, putting on 805 in First inniogs. D.A.Steele, c Butt, b B and Rev.W. V.
