390 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. S ept . 6, 1906. three wickets. Burnup, who carried out his bat for 131, made 41 for the first wicket with W oolley in 20 minutes, 68 for the second with Seymour in 40, and 189 for the third with Hutchings in 95. The last-named made his 124 out of 189 in just over an hour and a-half, hitting a 6 and 21 four’s. He made no mistake, and drove and hit to leg with much power. On Tuesday Burnup and Mason added 74 for the fourth wicket in an hour before the former, who hit in attractive style all round the wicket, was sent back for a faultless innings of 179 made out of 372 in 230 minutes. Humphreys continued the heavy and attractive scoring, adding 94 with Mason for the fifth wicket in 55 minutes, and 41 with Blaker for the sixth in 20. Mason scored 73 in two hours and hit nine 4’s, but, although he played a good innings, he was not seen at his best. Marsham made a use­ ful score, and, after lasting six hours, the innings closed for 610. Hampshire, 447 in arrears, scored 117 for two wickets before stumps were drawn, Bowell and Johnston making 46 for the first wicket and the latter and H ill 47 for the second. On Saturday only two were added ere Mead was bowled. Barrett did not stay long, and at 158 John­ ston was sent back for a splendid innings of 75, which lasted 165 minutes and contained a 6 and six 4’ s. The rest of the innings was marked by a very fine hitting display on the part of Llewellyn, who scored 158 not out out of 276 in two hours and a-quarter. He hit a 6 and 23 4’ s, and drove with great power, but, when 93, was missed by Blaker in the long-field. W ith Sprot he added 38 for theseventh wicket in 25 minutes,Greig 62 forthe sixth in 30, and with Langford 137 for the eighth in sixty. The innings closed for 410—a capital piece of work—and Kent were left victorious by an innings and 37 runs. Score and analysis:— H a m p s h ir e . First innings. Second innings. A. C.

YORKSH IRE v. M.C.O. & GROUND. Played at Scarborough on August 30, 31 and September 1. Yorkshire won by five wickets. The visitors commenced very poorly in this match, MacLaren being clean bowled by the second ball sent down by Hirst, and Foster, after being missed off the next, being disposed of by the eighth, two wickets thus going down for six runs. Fane then went in, and, with Spooner, improved the situation considerably, the third wicket adding 132 in an hour and a-quarter. Spooner, who hit well to leg, made five 4’s in his faultless 77, which took 85 minutes to compile. He and Payne were sent back by consecutive balls from Bhodes. Thirteen runs later Fane also was dismissed; by faultless cricket he had made 67 out of 145 in 100 minutes, hitting eight 4’ s, four of which were made in one over off Hirst. Braund afterwards played a good innings, batting two hours and a- quarter for 73, in which were eight 4’ s. When he had made 32 he gave a possible chance in the slips. At the end of the day Leveson-Gower (who hit eight 4’ s during the fifty minutes he was in) and Napier put on 51 for the last wicket in half-an-hour, stumps being drawn when, with the score 346, the innings terminated. During the day Hirst, who on the previous Tuesday had completed his 2,000 runs for the season, took his 200th wicket, and thus had the distinction of accomplishing a performance unique in the annals of first-class cricket. On Friday Yogler proved to be in capital form, for, although Tunnicliffe and Denton added 40 for the second wicket in 35 minutes, and the latter and Hirst 37 for the fourth in 25, six wickets were down for 105. There, however, the success of the visitors was checked, for Myers and Denton made so resolute a stand that their partnership for the seventh wicket realised 92 in 55 minutes. Denton, who hit well all round the wicket and made eleven 4’s, scored 80 without a mistake in two hours and a-quarter —a most praiseworthy innings. After his departure Myers continued to play well, adding 46 for the eighth wicket with Lord Hawke, and 45 for the ninth with Hunter. Altogether he scored 85 out of 183 in two hours without a mistake of any kind, hitting a dozen 4’ s and playing his highest innings for the county. When the last wicket fell the M.C.C. were left with a lead of 54. Before play ended for the day the visitors scored 87 for three wickets in an hour, Spooner hitting eleven 4 ’ 8 in his 60, made out of 75 in 50 minutes. On the third morning Fane was soon out, and, following his dismissal, came a fine hitting display on the part of Payne, who, hitting fifteen 4’s, scored 80 out of 105 in 50 minutes. When 232 had been made for eight wickets the innings was declared closed, Yorkshire being left 195 minutes iu which to obtain 287 to win. So finely did the County’ s batsmen hit that the runs were made for the loss of five wickets with half-an-hour to spare. Rhodes, who hit a 5 and fifteen 4’s, and scored his 109 out of 216 in two hours, took the chief honours, but Hirst’s 76 not out was a very good display. Rhodes made 88 for the first wicket with Tunnicliffe, 29 for the second with Denton, 47 for the third with Hardisty, and 52 for the fourth with Hirst. He was missed when he had made 34. Hirst scored 76 out of 123 in 45 minutes, and hit a 6 and eleven 4’ s. It was a capital victory. Score and analysis :— M.O.O. a n d G ro u n d .
