Cricket 1904

134 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. M ay 19, 1904 bat; Hirst made his 102 in about a couple of hours, while Rhodes, who had a 50 minutes’ partnership with Whitehead, carried his bat for 85 after batting for the same time as Hirst. Despite the large score made by Yorkshire, the ’Varsity bowling was not at all bad, but the fielding was by no means up to ’Varsity form. Cambridge, with 312 runs to wipe off beforetheydrew level, showed betterform in their second innings, but Haigh, who went on as fourth change, was again a thorn in their side. Keigwln and Eyre battedwell together after three wickets had fallen for 39 and during their partnership increased the score by 76. Keigwin’s 72 was a very sound innings which lasted for about an hour and three- quarters. Toward8 the end of the inning8 K. R. B. Fry hit hard. The Yorkshire captain was able to give Hirst a complete reat from bowling, while Rhodes was only used for a few overs in the first innings. C am bridge U n iv e r sity . Firat innings.

Throughout the match the bowlers had the beat of the situation, for the wicket waa never in favour of the batsmen. When Kent won the toss they found the bowling of Hallam very difficult to get away, and he had the large proportion of fifteen maiden overs out of twenty-five. On the other hand, Wass—who bowled a good many loo8e balls—waaoccaaionally hit about, but he took six wickets. The Kent total would have beenveryemail but for theplucky cricket of Huish towards the end of the innings. The chief feature of the day’s cricket was the fine display of J. Gunn,who, while all the rest of the team found the greatest difficulty in scoring, made 66 in an hour and 20minutes by beautiful cricket. On the first innings Kent had a lead of 9 rune, but as before stumps were drawn they lostthreegoodwickets for 37, the outlook was not very hopeful for them. A heavy dew had made the ticket very slow when the game was resumed on Friday morning, and although several of the side made useful scores, no one could stay long enough to afford the county much assistance, and the result was that Notts only had to make 123 to win. The wicket, moreover, seemed to be getting so much better that the task of the visitors seemed easy. A. O. Jones and John Gunn were both out when ten runs had teen scored, butlremonger and G. Gunn by steady cricket broughtthetotal to 69 beforetheywere parted, so that Notts seemed almost certain to win easily enough. Iremonger made 50 out of 69 ia an hour and three-quarters while he was at the wickets. After hie diamiaaal the bowlers once more gained the upper hand, and when Anthony and Oatea came together for theeighthwicketit was anybody’agame. The two professionals, however, hit hard and soon knocked off the runs. Blythe bowled uncommonly well; more especially before lunch. K e n t . First innings.

Played at Edgbaston on May 12 and 13. Leicestershire won by eight wickets. On the first day of this match Leicestershire gave an excellent account of themselves, scoring 171 for seven wickets against 124 by their opponents. King and Whitehead had much to dowiththegoodposition in which Leicestershire ended the day, for the former took seven wickets for 55, while the latter scored 60, the highest total of the day. The wicket was in favour of the bowlers, but Warwickshire were unfor­ tunate in that Kinneir, Charlesworth, and W . G. Quaife onlymade 10runs betweenthem, andalthough Fishwick and Lilley materially improved the pro­ spect of their side while they were together, the poor commencement of the innings waa followed by a breakdown of the tail. Although Leicestershire lost Knight, C. J. B. Wood, V. F. S. Crawford and King for very few runs, C. E. de Trafford and Whitehead hit so finely that the early downfall of the others did not matter so much. Whitehead made his 60 runs out of 76 in leaa than an hour. On the next morning thing8 went still more in favour of Leicestershire, for Coe and Gill, who were not out overnight, hit the bowling all over the field, and increasedtheovernight total from 171 to 268 before they were separated, their partnership having produced 89 runs. War­ wickshire had to wipe off a balance of 118 when they went in again, but they fared badly, and it became a question whether they would manage to avoid a defeat by an innings. Odell and King both bowled finely, and were ao well backed up by the field that Warwickshire could only acore 149, and were thua only 31 runa on. Six of the visitors made double figures, but there was no outstanding innings such as waa required to enable the side to win. W a r w ic k sh ir e . First innings. F.J.
