Cricket 1906

S ept . 13, 1906. CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 407 GENTLEMEN v. PLATERS. Played at Scarborough on September 6, 7 and 8. Drawn. Strong, but not representative, teams had been secured for this match, which, although ending in a draw, produced much good and interesting cricket. The Players won the toss, but lost half their wickets for 123 in 95 minutes, it not being until Hirst partnered Denton that any serious resistance was made to the bowling. Tunnicliffe, who made many good strokes in front of the wicket, was missed when he had made 46 ; he claimed 53 of the 133 added with Denton for the sixth wicket in 85 minutes. After the partnership was dissolved, a collapse took place, Hutch­ ings taking four wickets for 15 runs, and the innings, after lasting for 225 minutes, closing for 324. Denton carried out his bat for a splendid and faultless innings, which con­ tained strokes made all round the wicket. He reached 51 out of 79 in 70 minutes, 102 out of 202 in two hours and a-quarter, and, in all, made 157 out of 270 in 180 minutes. He hit twenty-three 4’s. In the last 50 minutes of the day the Gentlemen scored 70 for the loss of Spooner’ s wicket. On Friday Foster was sent back with 13 added, but in Fane Wynyard found a most useful partner, the two putting on 154 for the third wicket in 80 minutes. Wynyard made hia 137 out of 237 in 135 minutes by faultless cricket, his driving being superb. He hit a 6, a 5 and fifteen 4’ s. W ith Hutchings in Fane con­ tinued to play well, the fourth wicket realising 63 in 40 minutes before the latter, after batting for 125 minutes, was disposed of for a very sound innings of 61, in which were six 4’s. The Players’ total was equalled with four wickets in hand, and, thanks largely to Knox, who made some powerful drives, the Gentlemen were able to obtain a lead of 63 on the first innings. When they went in the second time the Players lost Rhodes at 11—caught at the wicket by Foster—but Tyldesley and Hayward added 49 for the second wicket in 40 minutes. The last-named batted for 100 minutes for his 62, and, at the end of the day, the Players had scored 152 for three wickets, being then 89 runs on with seven wickets in hand. On Saturday Denton was caught with only one run added: he had made 38 in 65 minutes, hitting six 4’ s, the majority of them drives. Hirst then joined Hayes, and, so well did the pair bat that the fifth wicket put on 98 in 50 minutes. W hen 374 had been made for six wickets the innings was declared closed, the Gentlemen being left 135 minutes in which to obtain 312 to win. Hayes carried out his bat for a splendid and chanceless innings of 122, which lasted an hour and three-quarters and contained eighteen 4’s. Wynyard and Spooner made 98 for the first wicket in 50 minutes, but half the side were out for 137. Douglas and Fane, however, by their steady play made a draw certain. There were 103 extras in the match. Score and analysis :— P latkrs.

Though the Poona eleven went in first in this match, played at Bombay on August 23 and 24, the home team were soon able to get in front. The advantage they gained before their eighth wicket fell they maintained to the end, finally gaining an easy victory by ten wickets. Score and analysis :— P oona G ymkhana . First innings. J. O.

MONTREAL. ALL TEN WICKBTS IN AN INNINGS. The Boston Zingari experienced another defeat when they met the Montreal Club at Montreal on August 23. The chief feature of the game was the success of R. Turner, a fast under-hand bowler for the Zingari. He took all ten wickets of Montreal at an average cost of just over eight runs a-piece. M ontreal . G. Ferrabee, b Turner 4 I .T.
