B 5, lb 1, nb 3 9 HAMPSHIRE v. WORCESTERSHIRE. Played at Portsmouth on August 16,17 and 18. Hampshire won by 131 runs. Neither side was at full strength in this match, Hampshire being without Hill, and the visitors lacking the services of R. E. Foster and W . E. C. Hutchings. Against the bowling »f Arnold the home side opened ro badly that Johnston, Bowell and Greig were all sent back for 27. Mead and Barrett then put on 93 for the fourth wicket in an hour and a-quarter, the former com pleting his thousand runs for the season in the over in which he was dismissed. Neither Sprot nor W yatt gave much trouble, but Stone helped Llewellyn to add 86 for the eighth wicket in 55 minutes, the last-named, who hit thirteen 4’s, scoring 80 out of 124 in 85 minutes. The innings closed for 248, and, ere play ceased for the day, Worcestershire secored 26 for the loss of Pearson. On the second m orning Burns, Bowley and Arnold had all been dismissed by the time the score had reached 66, and, although Foster and Cuffe put on 45 for the fifth wicket in 40 minutes, Hampshire were able to claim a lead of 79 on the first innings. When they went in the second time the home side again commenced disastrouslv, Johnston, Greig and Mead being out for 9. Then, however, followed a good stand by Barrett and Bowell, who put on 111 together for the fourth wicket in an hour and and a half The professional, who cut well, reached his 50 out of 75 in 65 minutes, and hit ten 4’s in his 71. Llewellyn afterwards helped Barrett to add 42 in 35 minutes, the total at the end of the day being 204 for six wickets. On Saturday Barrett added only 2 more runs ere being bowled for a faultless effort of 74, which included eight 4’s (the majority of them drives), and lasted 195 minutes. Langford and Badcock hit up 37 for the ninth wicket, and the visitors were loft four hours and a-half in which to get 342 to win. Worcester­ shire lost Bowley without a run on the books, whilst at 55 both Foster and Burns were out. Arnold played a good game, adding 60 for the fourth wicket with Pearson, and finding another useful partner in Cuffe, who showed fine defence. Arnold batted for 100 minutes for his 53. The tail made very little resistance, and Hampshire were left victorious by 131 runs.Score and analysis H a m p s h ir e . First innings. Second innings. A. C.

SUSSEX. Played at Cheltenham on August 16, 17 & 18. Gloucestershire won by an innings and 50 runs. On the opening day some surprising cricket was seen, Sussex being disposed of by Dennett and Ford in 80 minutes for the meagre total of 63. The score should not have been even so large as that, for A. E. Relf, who made the highest score, was let off when he had made 5. The batting was very poor, and the bowling of a high standard. At one time it appeared likely that Gloucestershire would not improve upon their opponents’ doings, for, before rain caused an adjournment, four wickets went down in 50 minutes for 56. Afterwards, however. Thomas and Board added 150 together for the fifth wicket in an hour and three-quarters. The professional batted for just under two hours and a-half for his admirable 82, in which were seven 4’s. Champain then kept Thomas company until stumps were drawn, when the total had reached 227 for five wickets (Thomas 101 not out). On Friday the five outstanding wickets went down in an hour for 50 runs. Thomas, who had been missed when 51, added but 10 to his score ere being caught at the wicket .for 111, made in 140 minutes. He made many fine off-drives and late cuts, and hit six 4’s. Jessop made 28 out of 34 in half-an-hour, hitting half-a-dozen 4’s. Sussex, when they went in the second time, required 214 to save the innings defeat. Vine was out at 8, and,although Killick and Simms made a few good hits, the score was only 95 when the eighth wicket fell. Dwyer and Butt added 53 for the last wicket in half-an-hour, but the innings closed for 164, Gloucesteeshire win­ ning by an innings and 50 runs. Ford and Dennett succeeded in bowling unchanged throughout the match, the former taking eleven wickets at a trifle over 10 runs a-piece. Score and analysis S u ssex . First innings. Second innings.

NORTHAMPTONSHIRE v. WEST INDIANS. Played at Northampton on August 16, 17 and 18. West Indians won by 155 runs. Challenor and Constantine, by making 60 for the first wicket in 50 minutes, gave their side a splendid start. The first-named, who hit seven 4’s, batted for an hour and forty minutes for his 60, but was missed when he had made 8. The best display of the innings was furnished by Goodman, who, hitting eleven 4’s, made 107 in two hours and a-half without a mistake. OUivierre, by free and faultless cricket, made 50 in fifty minutes, and, although the last few men did practically nothing, the innings, after lasting 220 minutes, closed for 297. The County fared badly against the attack of Smith and Olli­ vierre, and by the end of the day had lost four wickets for 29. On Friday Thompson scored 51 in an hour and a-half, but, no one else doing much, the innings closed for 85, Smith taking half-a-dozen wickets for 39. The visitors, holding a lead of 212, preferred to go in again themselves to making their opponents follow-on. Against Thompson and East they made only a poor resistance, being all disposed of for 99. Still, the home side required as many as 312 to win, and, ere stumps were drawn for the day, had made 60 for the loss of but one wicket. On the following morning Pretty was out at 72 and Cox at 84, whilst the score was only 125 when the eighth wicket fell. Manning and Horton added 19 for the ninth, but the West Indians won easily by 155 runs. In the whole match Smith took twelve wickets for 99. Score and analysis:— W e st I n d ia n s . First innings.
