WEST INDIANS. Played at Leicester on August 6, 7 and 8. Leicestershire won by 24 runs. The County’s innings, in which the first four wickets went down for 41, was noticeable only for a stand realising 83 for the fifth wicket in an hour by Coe and Whitehead. Each batsman was favoured by fortune, for Coe, who played an attractive game and hit eleven 4’s, was let off when he had made 20, whilst Whitehead was twice missed ere he had made a run. The last few men made useful scores, and the total eventually reached 274. The visitors, in response, made a capital start, Constantine and Challenor making 86 together in fifty minutes. At the end of the day they had scored 124 for two wickets, Constantine being not out 67. On the following m orning the last-named remained in until, by fine batting, he had made 92 in one hundred and ten minutes without a mistake of any kind. He hit a 5 and thirteen 4’s, and, with Smith, added 79 for the third wicket in an hour. After his departure nobody mastered the bowling, the County in con­ sequence being able to claim a lead of 32 on the first innings. In their second innings the County added considerably to their advantage, being 299 runs on with three wickets to fall when stumps were drawn. Vivian Crawford made 51 in half-an- hour, his chief strokes being a 6 and nine 4’s, five of which were obtained in an over off Ollivierre. Coe also did well, and at the end of the day carried out his bat for 73. Yesterday the last three wickets added 51, and the visitors were set 351 to win. Coe batted for 150 minutes for 86 without giving any­ thing like a chance, and had the distinction of making the highest score in each innings of his side. Ohallenor and Constantine again gave their side a splendid start, and, although their efforts were well seconded by Austin, Smith and Goodman, to say nothing of Mr. Extras, the County pulled off the match by 24 runs. The West Indians made a splendid effort, which almost proved successful. Score and analysis L eicestershire . First innings. C. J B.

KENT v. SUSSEX. Played at Canterbury on August 6, 7 and 8. Kent won by an innings and 131 runs. So many fine players have Kent at the present moment that it was decided to leave out Woolley from the side for the first match of the W eek —against Sussex, who were making their first appearance at Canterbury since 1814. The opening day was a triumph for Kent, seeing that, after losing half their side for 145, they had scored 453 for seven wickets by the time stumps were drawn. The first two wickets fell at 60, and the next two at 129. Dillon hit well, and Hutchings, after a rather lucky start, hit up 51 out of 69 in 55 minutes. Neither Mason nor Humphreys gave much trouble, but a splendid stand resulted from the association of Blaker and Burnup, who put on 191 for the sixth wicket in 115 minutes. Blaker, who pulled and drove in delightful fashion, reached 50 in an hour, 100 in an hour and fifty minutes, and, in all, scored 122out of 191 in one hundred and fifteen minutes. He hit nineteen 4’s,and,when 78,was missed by W ilder at long-off. Burnup was quite slow in com­ parison, taking two hours and a-half in which to reach 50, seventy minutes longer to make 100, and, altogether, batting for four hours and a-half for his 141 which he made out of 383 obtained whilst in. He was missed in the slips by Cox when he had made 81, hit sixteen 4’s, and made some brilliant cuts and strokes to leg. In the last twenty-five minutes of the day, Marsham and Huish put on 69 for the eighth wicket without being separated, the total at the close being 453 for seven wickets. On Tuesday morning Huish was sent back in the first over, the eighth wicket having added 74 in half-an-hour. when Blythe joined Marsham some very fast scoring was seen, 111 being put on in the short space of thirty- five minutes for tho ninth partnership, the first five overs of the day yielding 50 runs. Marsham, who was missed when 55, 105, and 117, hit nineteen 4’s, and scored his 119 in ninety minutes, whilst Blythe hit ten 4’s in his 53. The innings, after lasting only three hundred and thirty- five minutes, closed for 568, as many as 232 being made in the last hour and a-half. After their long outing Sussex made put a poor show with the bat, being all disposed of for 176. The younger Relf was sent back at 21, Killick at 56, and A. E. Relf and Simms at 70. Vine batted for nearly two hours for his 43—a most valuable innings—and Smith showed good form whilst getting 34. When the visitors followed-on, 392 behind, Vine was again seen to advantage, and Killick rendered him useful assistance by helping to add 66 for the second wicket in fifty-five minutes. After these two had been sent back, however, Sussex fared badly, and by the end of the day had lost half their wickets for 118 runs, being then 27 behind with five wickets in hand. Yesterday Simms tried hard to save his side, but received such poor support that Kent triumphed easily by an innings and 131 runs. Score and analysis K ent . E. W . Dillon, c Leach, b A. E.
