J u ly 14, 1904. CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 269 N O T T S v . L E IC E S T E R S H IR E . Played at Trent Bridge on J u ly 11, 12 & 13. Drawn. On a wicket as good as is usual at Trent Bridge, Leicestershire, werebatting all through the first day, their innings comiog to a conclusion just before the time for drawing stumps. The chief feature of the innings was the brilliant batting of V. F. 8. Craw­ ford, who made 150, his only very large score of the season, in two hours and fifty minutes, by some of the most attractive batting imaginable. At one period of his innings he and King scored 64 runs in eight overs. King, who was almost a sleeping partner with him, was at the wickets for two hours for his 46. Another fine innings was that of De Trafford. On Tuesday Iremonger, A. O. Jones, and J. Gunn began the Notts’ innings well, and afterwards J. Gunn and Jones played afinegim e. Jones hit twenty 4’s in his splendid innings of 108, and was batting for two hours. Later in the inniogs Anthony and Hardstaff, aided by several mistakes in the field, put on 113 for the seventh wicket. Leices­ tershire had a lead of 32, which they increased by 14 without losing a wicket before stumps were drawn. They did so well yesterday that they were able to declare with eight wickets down. Notts had no time to make the runs, but easily brought about a drawn game. L ricbstkrshirb . First innings. Second innings. C. E. de Trafford, c Jones, b J.

Yorkshire won by an innings and 18 runs. By the end of the first day’s play in this match the unfortunate Hampshire team seemed likely to be beaten once more; for Yorkshire, with only seven wickets down, had made 462 runs. Yorkshire did not begin well, and three wickets were down for 81. But wh-n Tunmcliffe was joined by Hirst the bowling was so completely mastered that the total was taken to 342 before the partnership producing 258 runs was broken. The two men were together for about two hours and three-quarters. At the end of the day, Rhode-* and Rothery hit the bowling all over the field, and when stumps were drawn the former was not out 70 and the latter not out 35. On Tuesday, Rhodes and Rothery kept together until their partnership had produced 152 ruus in an hour, and Hampshire had to face a v^ry large total. Their first wicket put up 64 runs in fifty minutes, Webb hitting with great vigour. Sprot then joined Webb and played an admirable game. While they were in partnership x.he two men scored 134 runs for the second wicket in seventy-five minutes. Webb batted so well that a collection was made for him on the ground. Sprot’s splendid innings lasted for two hours and a quarter, and his hits included eighteen 4’s. Later Hill played a brilliant game, but when stumps were drawn Hampshire, with ni' e wickets down, were still 220 runs behind. Yesterday Hill played another good innings, and Webb, Sprot, Bowell and Chignell all made useful scores, but the game was over soon after a quarter past three. Y orkshire . LordHawke.bPrichard 4 H.

WARWICKSHIRE. Played at Edgbaston on July 11, 12 and 13. Drawn. Although the wicket was excellent when Surrey went in to bat on Monday the commencement of the innings was disastrous. Abel, wbo made a welcome reappearance in the team after his fine display at Blackpool last week, was bowled at 28, and shortly afterwards Hayes and Raphael weie both out. t>aker kept in with Hayward tor half an hour before he scored, but the latter was dismissed with the total at 77, of which he was responsible for no fewer than 64, made in an hour and ten minutes. It was not a faultless display of batting, but it was exceedingly effective. Six wickets were down for 106 at lunch, but Lees played well, and afterwards Nice and Gooder made a most plucky stand for the ninth wicket. Nice, who was making his first appearance in the first team this season, played excellent cricket, and was batting for an hour and a half. When Warwickshire went in an hour and twenty minutes remained for play. During that time Fishwick and Kinneir kept up their wickets, the score at the close of play being 79. The partnership was not broken on Tuesday until it had produced 121 runs,when Kinneir was l.b.w. Afterwards Quaife and Glover wore down the bowl­ ing by very slow and careful play, and were together for three hours dur ng which they increased the score ty lt8. Altogether Quaife was batting for four hours, and Glover for three hours and twenty minutes. The Warwickshire batting suddenly broke down, but Lynes and Moorhouse put on 64 for the ninth wicket, and in the end Surrey had to go in a second time against a balance of 162. Before stamps were drawn they had made one run without losing a wicket. Yesterday they gave such an excellent account of themselves that when the match ended they had somewhat the teat of the game. Hayward played another splendid innings, and was battiog for practically the whole day. He received mos: efficient support from Baker, Raphael and Hayes. 8 urrey . First innings. Second innings.

Fry the Sussex eleven on Monday did not give a very good account of itself, a though there was nothing the m itter with the wicket, uu the oiher hand, Kent, m the course of half-au-hour’s battiug at the end of the day, fared no better, for they lost Humphreyn and Dillon for 37 runs. During the day only 213 ruus were made, aud on the whole the batting was unattractive. Braiin and Vine began the innings by exeiciaing the utmost caution, and when Braun was out for 9 he had been batting for an hour and ten minutes. Newhani, as usual, played a most useful innings, but it was not oue of ttanjit- fcinbji’s days. Things did not go at all well for Kent on Tuesday for some time, and six wickets were down for 106, seven for 129, aud eight for 133. But Huish and Fairservice made a most u eful stand, and Fielder helped Fairservice to add 36 for the last wicket, with the result that the Sussex total was exceeded by five runs. Sussex in their second innings lost brann with the total at 9, but after Kiilick aua Vine had kept together for some time Ranjitsinhji played a beautiful innings. Vine was out at 53 and Killica at 13o, but Ranjitainhji continued to make runs at a great pace, aud when stumps were drawn he was not out 118 , having only been at the wickets for an hour and fifty minutes. Tne Sussex total was
