BEGINNING OF THE FIRST-CLASS SEA80N. Played at the Oval on April 16, 17 and 18. Surrey won by eigbt wickets. A beautiful morning on Easter Monday induced about 8,000 people to go to the Oval to see the beginning of this match, and they enjoyed a most attractive day’s cricket. Dr. Grace made some fine strokes in his 21, out of a total of 43, but the innings of the day was the 107 by E. H D. Sewell, who, going in first wicket down with the total at 6, was not out 87 at lunch time, his innings at last ending for 107, after he had been at the wickets for an hour and fifty minutes. His first fifty runs were scored out of a total of 81. He hit sixteen 4’s, and was seen quite at his best. Later, H. G. Keigwin, a brother of the Cambridge Blue, played very pretty cricket, while Odell, Bell and Lawton all made most useful scores. Surrey had to bat for an hour before stumps were drawn, and scored 81 for the loss of a wicket, Hobbs being bowled at 56 for an excellent 29. Hayward, who seems *o be in as good form as ever, carried his bat for 36. He only survived for a few minutes on Tuesday, but Holland played an attractive game, and Goatly showed steadiness and resource in his innings of 53. He and Davis put on 61 runs in forty minutes during their partnership for the fifth wicket. The tail did not add largely to the score, and Surrey were 60 runs behind on the first innings. The Gentlemen would have fared badly when they went in again but for a brilliant innings by Lawton, who made 69 in an hour, and another good display by Keigwin. Nevertheless, they were able to set Surrey the task of making 235 in the fourth innings of the match. Of these, 31 were scored without loss before stumps were drawn, Hayward making 20 and Hobbs 11. The weather, which was unp’easantly cold on Tuesday, became wintry yesterday, and the fieldsmen and bowlers were considerably handicapped. Hobbs and Hayward made th« best use of their oppor­ tunity, and before they were parted they had made their side practically secure of victory. During their partnership they put up 135 for the first wicket in an hour and twenty-five minutes, Hayward scoring most of the runs; he hit a 5 and twelve 4’s. After the dis­ missal of Hayward, Hobbs received valuable assistance from Holland. The two men put on 82 in half an hour, and the match was over by ten minutes past one, Surrey having made 201 runs in an hour and a half. Gamble created a most favourable impression as a bowler in the two innings of the Gentlemen. G en tlem en o f E n g la n d First innings. Second innings. Dr.W.G.
