The first-class season having practically reached its conclusion, the present may be deemed an opportune moment at which to publish particulars of the most noteworthy instances of fast scoring by individuals during 1905. So far as I am aware, no previous attempt has ever been made on similar lines to deal with a whole season’s performances, but the summary should surely prove at least as interesting as the list of averages with which everybody is so familiar. 35 out of 35 in 18 mins., A.
