M.C.C. & GROUND v. SUSSEX. TWO SEPARATE HUNDREDS BY C. B. FRY AND AN INNINGS OF 204 BY P . F. WARNER. Played at Lord’s onMay 8, 9 and 10. M.O.C. won by seven wickets. Although Sussex had a team which on paper did not seem at all strong C. B. Fry and Relf were in such fine form that in the first innings they made up for the shortcomings of their companions. Fry, whose practice against the Australians seems to have been very useful, played a perfect game, making brilliant and powerful strokes all round the wicket, and never being at a loss to know what to do with a ball. At lunch time his score was 83, and when he was at last dismissed for 15(5 he had been batting for three hours and a quarter; among his hits were six­ teen 4’s, His partnership with Relf produced 159 in an hour-and-a-half. Goldie, who re-appeared for Sussex after a long absence in India, only made 19, but shewed that he is still a fine player. The M.C.C. had an hour’s batting, and lost two wickets for 81 before stumps were drawn. Warner was not out 41. On Tuesday, Lawton made a useful 28, but until C. P. Foley joined Warner Sussex did fairly well, although Warner was playing such fine cricket and making runs with such ease that the score was mounting up. Foley played astubborn game, leaving the scoring almost entirely to Warner, and only making 8 runs himself in an hour. Warner reached his 150after batting three hours, and then went trium­ phantly on his way until at the end of another forty minutes he had the pleasure, for the first time in a first-class match, of reaching the second hundred. Almost immediately afterwards lie was caught at the wicket for 204, a brilliant innings which included a hve, and twenty-six 4’s. Foley eventually reached within four runs of his fifty, and his innings was of inestimable advantange to his side. After he had been disposed of Tarrant and Huisli scored fast off the tired bowlers, and with Heame also making runs the experiment was made of declaring the innings elosed with a total at 503 for nine—only 164 runs on. Warner’s pluck in declaring seemed more than Justified when stumps were drawn, for Sussex had I >st Goldie and Butt and had only scored 47. Yes­ terday, on a wicket which helped the bowlers a ^ a#am played a great innings and made Jyn. Thus he had the satisfaction for the fourth time in his career of making two separate hundreds in a first-class match. Vine backed him up well, but the rest of the team did little and the M.C.C. 'von with some ease. S ussex . First innings. C. B. Fry, b Tarrant......... 156 Vine, run out ................ 17 Klllick, b Hearne ......... 11 K. O.

Page, the Association f(K)tball blue, who scored 115 in an hour and three-quarters, 80 of them from boundary hits. P. R. May, the London County and Surrey player and Association blue, bowled fairly well. On Tuesday, May’s bowling met with great success, and it was largely due to him that his side was easily victorious.

Played at Trent Bridge on May 8, 9, 10. Drawn. For this match the Australians left out Gehrs, who is unwell, Kelly, and Gregory. The" Austra­ lians batted on a typical Trent Bridge wicket”, and naturally the spectators anticipated a very large score against the weak Notts bowling. But in a few minutes everybody was asking himself what was the matter, for Trumper was caught at the wicket off the last ball of the first over, Duff was out just afterwards to a splendid catch in the slips by A. O. Jones, and Hill misjudged a full pitch. So far the Notts bowlers had reason to congratulate themselves, and they might possibly have accom­ plished a great feat if a very easy chance to mid-off by Noble had not been missed. But for this mis­ take Notts suffered severely, for Noble afterwarc's played a great game, and assisted Armstrong to put on 128 in less than an hour and three quarters for the fourth wicket. Both men were in splendid form, and Armstrong covered himself with gloiy by making 112; he was at the wickets for a couple of hours, his powerful off drives being the chief, feature of his game. Darling played a grand innings, and Newland and Cotter made hay of the bowling. But six of the Australians only accounted for 15 rails between them. Wass bowled very well indeed, and J. Gunn not at all badly, but the rest, were quite ineffective. Notts had an hour’s batting before stumps were drawn, and, although Cotter soon dismissed Iremonger, who was finely caught in the slips by Trumper with one hand outstretched, the total was taken to 60without further loss. Jones was not out 43, a fine innings, and G. Gunn not out 9. On Tuesday Jones was slow in settling down, but the total was taken to 115 before the next wicket fell, Gunn being finely caught at square leg by Trumper. The partnership had produced 107 in ah hour and three-quarters. So far things looked well for Notts, but .Tones was soon caught on the boun­ dary off Armstrong, aud from this time the Austra­ lians began to gain the upper hand, although Hardstaff and Hallam played with pluck. In the absence of Wass, who was hurt, the innings came to an end for 219, the Australians thus having a lead of 69. This lead was increased by 133 for the loss of two wickets before stumps were drawn,
