188 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. iJUNE 9, 1904. SUSSEX V. DERBYSHIRE. Played at Brighton on June 6, 7 and 8. Sussex won by an innings and 65 runs. These two counties resumed their annual contest on Monday after an iaterval of twenty years. Ranjit- sinbji, who his not been the Ranjitsinbji of old this year although he has made a few good scores, was taking a rest, but as C. B. Fry happened to be in brilliant form the Derbyshire bow.ers had plenty of work. Fry played a magnificent inniogs, and the only chance that he gave was of a kind which istaken very rarely indeed. He was at the wickets for four hours and a-half, and was seventh out with the total at 376; his iunings of 226 included twenty-two 4’s. I.» partnership with Vine he put up 175 for the first wicket in two hours and ten minutes, and a though Relf was the only other batsman besides Vine who helped him much he made his runs so rapidly that this did not greatly matter. When stumps were drawn the tolal was 392 for ei*ht wickets. A h*»avy thunderstorm on Monday night affected the wicket considerably, and the Derbysaire batsmen, with the exception of Wright, who playedasplendid game, did not greatly distinguish themselves. Hopelessly bejin i Derbyshire had to follow-on. By the time that the day’s play enJed Dernyshire were in a hope- les^posit:oa, for with only two wickets in hand they were still 162 runs behind. Yesterday Ashcroft played a great game. SUSSEX. Butt, c Needham, b C.B.Fry,c Humphries, b Cadman .........226 Vine b Warren .. ... 68 Killick, b Codman ... 1 j Rr-lf, c & b Curgenven 27 W .

LANCASHIRE v. SOMERSET. Played at Bath on June 6, 7 and 8. Lancashire won by ten wickets. Although Somerset had the advantage of batticg first on a fast and true wicket they did so badly for a. time that six wickets were down for 76. Then Lee and Martyn put on 86 in an hour and a quarter for the jieventh wicket, and things began to look decidedly better. Martyn played a remaikably good innings.1 Afterwards Poyntz, CraLfleid and North all played well, and the total wasreasonably large in the end. Lancashire had an hour and a-half before them, and in that time scored 162 runs, Maclaren ai.d Tyldesley both playing most attractive cricket. When stumps were drawn Tyldesley was notout 68 and Poidevin not out 5. On luesday Poidevin was soon disposed of, but Hallows stayed with Tyldesley for about an hour duricg which 106runs wereput on. In the course of this partnership 'lyldtsley made three consecutive fours off Braund, anu followed this up by hitting him over the ropes for six. Tyldesley made his hundied in a little more than an hour and a-half out of a total of 155. He was eighth out, having played a brilliant and faultlessgame for three hours and a quaiter, during which he scored 210, his hits included a six and thiriy-one 4’s. At the end of the Lancashire innings Cuttell made his presence felt, and Lanca»hire were able t> give Someiset the task of making 250 before they drew level. Braund and L. C. H. Palairet set about this work in the most business-like way. They scored 161 for the first wicket in an hour and three-quarters, and when the ay’s play ended the total was 178 for one wicket. Paiair^t was not out 88. Yesterday thetail didbadly. S omerset . First innings. 8 M. J. Woods, b Brearley 11 Braund, b Brear’ey .......... 5 Lewi8,c Hallows, b Frearley 33 L. C. H.

If only a few county matches had beentakingp’ace at the Shine timeasthis match, the M.C.C. might nave been able to place very powerful teams iu tne field. Hut *8 thirteen counties, as well as the London County C.C., were eng*s<ed, it was not possible to get together lepreseu ative teams, and it will be surprising if moie than two of the Gentlemen’s XI. appear against the Players at Lord’s ; it is not altogether improbable that not a single representa­ tive of the eleven will play in the 1ig match. There was very little bowling on either side, and yet, with the exception of L. J. Moon, none of the men who batted ou the first day made a big score. Moon’s fine innings of lb2 included twen'y-six 4’s. The only other innings of note on the side of the Gent emen was the 38 uot out by K J. Key, who showed much of his old form. Bosanquet met with gre*t success witb the ball. For I Z ngari Captain Wynyard showed SDundcricket iu making his 45, and he and Lord Hawke put on 77 iu an hour for the fourth wicket. When stumps were drawn the total was 146 for 7, most of the batsmen failing to make any stand against Hesketh Prichard, who took four wickets. The innings of I Zingari was soon brought to a conclusion, anu the bentlemen soon begau to largely increase their lead of 92. Raphael m*de 30 out of the first 38 runs scored, but wiih the total at 4y he was lbw. Beldamplayed a good innings, which la9ted for an hour and a quarter, and ine weak bowling of I Zingari was eooniudifficulties, although no one made a tig score until Key played a charac­ teristic and brilliaut innings. Berners made 60 in an hour, and when the iuuings came to an end the Gentlemen had a lead of 411. I Zingaii made 17 without loss before stumps were dra*n, and against the weak bowling of ihtir opponents scored rapidly. G entlemen of E ngland . Firstinnings. Second innings. J. E.
