Cricket 1904

J u l y 28, 1904. CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 303 the total at 10 Hayward was l.b.w., and at 13 Hayes wag caught at point. Abel and Holland then made a useful stand, and. meeting with some good luck, put on 67 runs in three-quarters of an hour. Three wickets were now down for 70 and at 74 Hayes was out. Sheppard played a good innings, but no one else helped Abel, and Surrey had to follow on with arrears of 192 to knock off. This time Abel and Hayward revived memories of the combination which used to be so successful, but when they seemed likely to make a Ion? stand together Hayward was out, with the total at 48. Before another run had been made Haves was bowled, but the disasters ended here as far as Tuesday’s play was concerned. When stumps were drawn the total was 64 for two wickets, Abel not out ‘26. Yesterday, three more wickets Foon fell and half the side were out for 102. Meanwhile Abel had been playing a splendid uphill game, showing all the resourcefulness for which he has been famous for so many years, and he survived until the total was 139, of which he claimei 66, He was batting for two hours and a quarter, and he made a magnificent effort to save a beaten side. After Abel’s dismissal the end was not long delayed, and Somersetshire gained a well-deserved victory. In the course of the morning Robson took five wicket* for 12 runs. In the first innings of Surrey Hedley bowled exceedingly well. S om ersetsh ire . First inniogs. L.C .H.Palairet,cAbel, b Lees .................26 Major W. C.

WARWICKSHIRE. Played at Leyton on July 25, 26, and 27. Warwickshire won by eight wickets. On winning the toss on Monday the Warwickshire captain put the home team in first. In the absence of Perrin, who had hurt his hand at Manchester, the Essex batting was much weakened, and although Carpenter and Fane did well, when play began after lunch time the bowlers soon managed to gain the upper hand. The first two v. ickets fell for 64, and the next six for an addition of 36runs. But Douglas Plyed well, and received some help from Rubsell and Buckenham, so that in the end the total was 13 «. Warwickshire batted for twenty-five minutes, and then, with the total at 18 for no wicket t<ie light was so bad that play was abandoned for the day After heavy rain in the night the wicket became more difficult on Tuesday, and when the game was re­ sumed at a little after twelve o’clock, the lall got up so much that four wickets vere down for 33. Byrne and Lilley then risked a little, and Doth men made some beautiful hits during their parteership, which lasted for a little over half an nour, and produced 67 runs. Wh*never the slightest opportunity presented itself they hit very hard, and it was but seldom that the ball went direct to a fields­ man. Whittle also made some delightful hits. About this time there were several very short run.«, which, but for want of method as well as quickness in the fieldsmen, would have been fatal. Santall and Lynes both played a good game, and at lunch time nine wickets were down for 153. The first ball after lunch brought the innings to a close, and Essex had a balance against them of 20. In their second ini.ings they lost two wickets for 46, but Carpenter and McGahev kept together for some time, the former doing nearly all the scoring, and playing a brilliant game. After he was out the bowhra began to make headway, and Freeman alone was able to offer much resistance to them. At five minutes to i?ix Warwick­ shire went in with the task of getting 138 runs before them, but when 19 had been made for the loss of one wicket stumps were drawn owing to the bad light. Yesterday Fishwick and Kinneir played well, and later Quaife and Hinneir kept together until the match was over, both playing with great judgment. E ss e x . First innit gg. Second innings.

It was unfortunate for Sussex that Fry did not get well set on Monday, for the soft wicket was not difficult, and if he bad been allowed to remain for long the total of 92 which Sussex made before rain stopped play at lunch time might have been largely increased, a s it was he was dismissed at 30. Killick remaiued with Vine until the total was 53, and then Newham and Vine kept up their wickets, and played an exceedingly cautious game. On Tuesday the wicket was so wet that play was not resumed until half-past one. Newham and Vine remained together until their partnership nad produced 154 runs in two hours and a quarter. Newham left at 207. Both he and Vine made their ruus quickly during the later part of their innings, and ooth played exceedingly well. With Ranjitsinhji and Vine together tne bowling was so tnorougnly mastered that in the course of an hour and ten minutes 189 runs were put on. Altogether Vine was batting for four hours and twenty minutes for his excellent iunings of 169 ; his hits included twenty-four 4’s. All through his innings Ranjitsinhji scoreu at about tiie rate of a run a minute; he was in his very t est and most brilliant form. Derbyshire had a few minutes batting in a bad light, and lost two wickets for 25. There was no play yesterday owing to rain. Sussex. C. B.
