Cricket 1904

J ult 21, 1904. CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 285 steadiest of games, while the latter hit in his usual forceful style. The partnership produced 101 runs in less than an hour, Trott claiming 67 of them; his hits included twelve 4 ’s. Stogdon w a s at the wickets for forty minutes for his first two runs, but towards the end of his inninga he m%de some fine hits. The tail played up manfully, and the result was a fairly good total. More hit very hard and well for his 53. Lancashire went in at a quarter to five, and at the end of the day their total was 166 for two wickets, so that they were only 103 runs behind. Spooner and Tyldes­ ley put on 80 runs for the second wicket. When stumps were drawn Tyldesley was not out 63 and Hallows not out 22. The partnership was not broken on Tuesday until it had produced 92. Tyldesley was batting for two hours for his 102. After his departure Hallows played a fine game, but could get no one to stay with him for any length of time, and in the end he carried his bat for 137, after batting for three hours and a half. The last four men only made 6 runs between them. When they went in again Middlesex began even worse than in the first inning?, and five wickets were down for 61. Stogdon and Trott then made a most useful stand. In an hour and a half these two men raised the total to 149, and when stumps were drawn Stogdon was not out 49. The total was 156 for six wickets, so that Middlesex were 45 runs ahead, with the prospect of a severe defeat before them Yesterday they could not get out of their difficulty, and Lancashire only had to make 105 to win.

Major Poore made his first appearance for Hamp­ shire this season on Monday, but being short of prac­ tice was not seen at his best. The Hampshire batting was disappointing on the whole, but A. J. L. Hill played a brilliant innings and only missed his hundred because he could get no one to stay with him long enough. He and Llewellyn put on 105 for the seventh wicket in an hour. Worcestershire made 199 for two wickets before stumps were drawn. Pearson, who was at the wickets for two hours, scored 106. Wheldon was not out 68 and Gaukrodger not out six. On Tuesday, H. K. Foster played a splendid game and Hampshire had to go in a second time against a balance of 303. Hampshire lost four wickets for 138 before stumps were drawn. Yesterday Evans and Hill both played a wonderfully good game, but despite their efforts, Hampshire were severely defeated. H ampshire , First innings.

Nearly all Perrin’s runs weremade by means of boundary hits, the ball travelling over the dry grass so rapidly to the short boundary that the fieldsmen had very little chance of getting to it. In partnership with Fane, Perrin helped to put on 120 for the second wicket in an hour and ten minutes; with Gillingham as a partner 121 runs were made in an hour and five minutes, and a third long partnership which produced 13 »in an hour and a quarter ensued between him and Douglas. At the end of the day Essex, with two wickets in hand, had made 524 runs. On Tuesday morning Perrin soon passed his third hundred, and nuking runs quickly he reached a score of 313 before the innings came to an end. He was still unconquered after batting for five hours and three-quarters ; his hits included no fewer than sixty-eight 4’s. Derbyshire had apparently a thank* less task before them, but they set to work in such a determined way that at lunch time the score was 144 with no wickets down The total was 190before Wright was caught for a splendid 66. Ollivierre, who had gone in first with him, took risks and hit with the utmost boldness ; but his boldness met with such success that when on y two wickets were down he reached his second hundred. 8torer and Ollivierre added 128 in an hour and a quarter for the second wicket. When Ollivierre’s great innings came to an end he had been batting for three hours and three- quarters, and his hits included a five and thirty-seven 4’s. When one considers the position of his side when he began his innings his feat seems magnificent. When stumps were drawn the Derbyshire total was 446 for four wickets, so that only 2 runs were required to save the follow-on. Of the third day’s cricket the e is a remarkable tale to tell. The re­ maining six Derbyshire batsmen added 102runs to the total, ►o that their side was only 49 runs behind when Essex went in a second time. Then ensued an in­ explicable breakdown on the part of Essex, and before lunch six wickets were down for 28. After­ wards Sewell and Douglas made a most plucky effort to pull their side out of a dangerous position, but despite all they could do the total of the innings was only t-7. Wairen bowled splendidly. Derbyshire were now left to make 147 in two hours and ten minutes, and with such an entirely uneipected chunce of victory offered to them they set to work with such determination that, although they lost Wright for 1 run, they won a glorious victory by nine wickets. Ollivierre again played a splendid game. E ssex . First innings. Second innings. F. L.

Short boundaries, a fine wicket, an extremely hot day, weak bowling, and brilliant batting by Perrin resulted in the higher inoividual innings of the season on Monday. Perrin waa in magnificent form, and showed, as usual, such command over the bowling and so little intention of getting himself out, that the Derbyshire men must have beeu disheartened long before stumps were drawn. He was batting for five hours, and, when the day’s play ended, was not out 295, thus t eating the record individual score of Total... ...597 Total ... 97 D erbyshire . First innings. Second innings.
