SUSSEX v. MIDDLESEX. Played at Brighton on June 28 and 29. FIN E BOW LING B Y D W YER. Sussex won b y an innings and 101 runs. Lacking as they did the services of G. W. Beldam, Bosanquet and Warner, Middlesex were by no means well represented in this match. Still, tlieir defeat by so large a margin as an innings and 101 runs came quite as a surprise. In their first innings Harrison and Tarrant made 25 for the opening partnership, but after that the side went altogether to pieces. Trott made 13, and only Hearne, who carried out his bat for 28, made as many as 20. The innings lasted less than a couple of hours and realised only 96. Dw.ver and Albert Relf, who bowled unchanged, were somewhat assisted by the wicket, but the former’s analysis of seven for 56 was nevertheless a very creditable one. Sussex lost Smith at 4, whilst Vine, before making a run, was out to a splendid left-handed catch by MacGregor. Killick and A. E. Relf then came together and added 90 for the third wicket in 70 minutes. Killick, who hit well all round the wicket, gave two hard chances —at 60 and 67—but made 96 out of 157 in 140 minutes. He hit nine 4’s. Cox and the younger Relf afterwards added 52 without being separated, and, when stumps were drawn, Sussex, with half their wickets in hand, were 127 mns on. Owing to rain no play was possible on the second day until ten minutes to three. Robert Relf, after being in 115 minutes, was sent back for a well-played 58, which contained a 6 (an on-drive out of the ground off Trott) and eight 4’s. Although the five outstanding wickets fell in 50 minutes for 63, Middlesex were as many as 190 behind on the first innings. When they went in the second time the wicket was at its woi-st, and disasters followed each other rapidly. So un­ playable did Dwyer prove that half the side were out for 17, Rawlin and Trott falling to successive balls. Seven men were out for 38, but MacGregor and Baker added 22 for the eighth wicket, and the total reached 88. Baker, after batting three-quarters of an hour, carried out his bat for 28. Dwyer proved almost irresistible, and obtained the last nine wickets for 44 runs, making his record for the match sixteen for 100. The wicket certainly assisted him, but his performance was nevertheless a remarkable one. It is an interesting fact that no bowler had taken as many as sixteen wickets in a match for Sussex for eighty years. Sussex won by an innings and 101 runs. Score and analysis M iddlesex .

Kent won by eight wickets. Owing to rain, no play was possible until ten minutes past three on the second afternoon, when Kent, having lost the toss for the seventeenth time in succession, took the field in the first match wherein they had ever met Leicestershire. So difficult a matter did run-getting prove that during the afternoon thirteen wickets fell for 184. Before Fairservice and Woolley the home side fared badly, being all out in a couple of hours for 111. The best cricket was shown bv Knight, who made two drives for 6 in an over frcm Humphreys. During the innings Crawford was well caught in the lcng-field by Hutchings, but, as the fieldsman had one foot over the boundary at the time, the batsman continued his innings. Kent had an hour’s batting at the end of the day, and in that time scored 73 for three wickets, Dillon, who was missed when 2 in the long-field, being 41 not out. Jayes, in attempting a catch, split a finger, and was prevented from taking any further part in the match. On Saturday Dillon continued to score freely, and, in all, batted two hours for 85. He gave two chances, but his innings was a very meritorious one notwithstanding. He hit a dozen 4’s. Leicestershire, 64 behind on the first innings, lost four wickets for 38 runs before lunch, and it was only a stand of 52 for the sixth wicket by Coe and Joyce, which lasted 40 minutes, that saved the side from a bad collapse. As it was, the innings closed for 106, and Kent,left with only 43 to win, proved successful by eight wickets. Fairservice again bowled well, and in the match obtained eleven wickets for 80.
