Cricket 1905

A ug . 3, 1905 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 309 when the game was resumed the wicket had been made much easier by the shower and runs came quickly. Jayes played an admirable game for an hour and three-quarters and received valuable assistance from Coe. Towards the end of the innings Gill made a most useful 26. Derbyshire did badly when they went in for seventy minutes, and at the end of the day their score was 55 for four wickets. On Friday King and Coe met with great success with the ball and Leicestershire,had a lead of 45 runs. In their second innings they found it difficult to make runs, but as several men gave a good account of themselves the total came to 191, so that Derby­ shire had to make 237 to win. They began their innings at five o’clock and lost four wickets for 46. But Cadman (41) and Ollivierre (22) then played out time, and took the total to 91. On Saturday the two not outs played so well that Derbyshire seemed likely to win with ease, but after Ollivierre had been dismissed at 124 the remaining batsmen were almost helpless against the bowling of Jayes, the last five wiclcets falling for 25 runs. Altogether Jayes took nine wickets for 78 in this innings. L eicestershire . First innings O.E. de Trafford,cWalkden, Bestwick ........................ 3 C. J. B.

SUSSEX. ▲ SPLENDID FINISH. Played at Portsmouth on July 27, 28 and 29. Sussex won by six wickets. For this match Hampshire had to take the field without Captain Greig, Captain Wynyard, A. J. L. Hill, Hesketh-Prichard, and W. H. B. Evans, while Sussex, as only too frequently happens, were with­ out O. B. Fry. On a good wicket Hampshire met with a series of disasters, four wickets being down for 28. Norbury then made a plucky stand with Stone, with the result that 88 runs were put on in seventy minutes. But after Norbury left for a most useful 35 there was again a breakdown, and when the eighth wicket fell the total was only 146. Then came the most remarkable play of the day. Ede, who is a son of Mr. E. L. Ede, the well-known old Hampshire cricketer, joined Stone, who was playing a wonderfully good game, and the bowling was so completely mastered that the ninth wicket accounted for 147 runs in an hour and forty minutes. Three- fourths of the runs came from the bat of Stone, but Ede distinguished himself by making many very pretty hitS, his cutting being excellent. Stone was last out for a brilliant innings of 174, compiled in three hours and three-quarters, his hits including twenty-three 4’s He went in when three wickets were down with the score at about 25, so that he scored two-thirds of the runs made while he was at the wickets. A collection on the ground reached £15 for him. Sussex had three-quarters of an hour’s batting, and scored 31 without loss, Vine 12, and Young 15. Sussex played an uphill game on Friday, but, on the whole, came out with credit. Young played another fine innings, and Goldie greatly dis­ tinguished himself, making 75 in an hour and three- quarters. Baldwin bowled very well indeed. With a lead of 31 Hampshire made 71 for two wickets in their second innings, so that they ended the day in a good position. W. V. Jephson played a remarkable innings of 59 not out, making all the first 46 runs, and 52 out of 55. On the following morning he was soon dismissed, and no one except Llewellyn could offer much resistance to the bowling. Sussex had to make 231, and went in immediately after lunch. Vine played his usual steady game, and runs came so slowly that, although Cox hit out boldly, 120 runs were still required when there was only an hour and a half left for play. A brilliant innings by Leach, who at once began to hit the bowling all over the field, soon gave Sussex a chance of winning, and with Vine increasing his rate of scoring con­ siderably, the runs were hit off in fifty minutes, Sussex winning the match at about a quarter to six without any further loss. Vine’s Innings of 103 was admirable in every way, but if it had not been for the determined hitting of Leach, Sussex would, in all probability, have had to be content with drawing the game.

YORKSHIRE v. NOTTS. Played at Trent Bridge on July 27 and 28. Yorkshire won by an innings and 56 runs. IfNotts batted first on a wicket which had been affected by rain, although it was not as difficult as it might have been. But after Rhodes and Haigh replaced Hirst and Ringrose the batting broke down, and the innings came to an end for 114. The only man on the side who distinguished himself was G. Gunn, who kept up his end for an hour and ten minutes for 31. Yorkshire did very much better, and before the end of the day scored 228 for six wickets. Lord Hawke and Denton gave them a good idea of the way in which the bowling should be treated, putting up 70 runs in fifty minutes for the second wicket, and afterwards Hirst and Tunni­ cliffe added 91 in an hour and twenty minutes. All these four men played a great game. At the end of the day Ernest Smith, who was playing in the place of the Hon. F. S. Jackson, was not out 12. On Friday Myers and Hunter put up 83 for the ninth wicket, and Ringrose hit a 6 and two 4’s in his 19. Notts had a balance against them of 229, and were all out for 174. The last five wickets fell for 35 runs. The only outstanding innings was that of Hardstaff, who played fine cricket for an hour and a half. N otts . First innings. Second innings. A. O.

On the first day of this match a thunderstorm put an end to play at about five o’clock. Somerset batted first on a good wicket, but could only score 207, although there was some very attractive cricket during their innings. When the storm came Kent had scored 107 for one wicket against a total of 207. Alec Hearne played very well indeed for 41, and Dillon was in excellent form for 52 not out. On Fri­ day he and Seymour were not separated until their partnership had produced 103 runs in about an hour. All through the day the Kent batsmen made runs as quickly as possible, for the wicket was not wearing well, and was always becoming more difficult. Dillon made his 102 in two hours, and Seymour his 109 in two hours and ten minutes, while Blaker hit with such vigour that he scored his 61 in half-an-hour. The total of 457 made by Kent was
