Cricket 1908

J u n e 4 , 1908 . CRICKET a w e e k l y r e co r d of t h e g a m e . G L O U C E S T E R S H IR E v. N O T T S . Played at Bristol on May 28, 29 and 30. Notts won by six wickets. G loucestershire substituted Ford for Dean in this m atch, and the change proved very success­ ful. Board and Langdon scored 41 for the first wicket before the latter was unfortunate enough to play-on. Godsell and W instone were quickly run out and, w ith Jessop caught at the w icket off the second ball he received, four w ickets were down for 54. Huggins helped Board to add 27 for the fifth w icket. Off the first ball sent dow n after lunch, the latter was out to a fine catch low down at point, having, by very good cricket, scored 49 out pf 96 in a couple of hours w ithout a m istake; he hit three 4’s and was seventh out. Jellie and F ord m ade useful scores, the form er scoring 19 in 55 m inutes and the latter 24 in a- quarter of an hour. The w hole side were dis­ missed in 170 m inutes for 143, a poor total con ­ sidering that the w icket was true. Wass took six w ickets for 79 runs. N otts had a splendid start given them b y George Gunn and Irem onger, who sent 50 up in an hour and the hundred in 110 m inutes w ithout being separated. W hen the partnership had lasted tw o hours and realised 106 runs, how ever, Gunn was sm artly stum ped for a faultless innings of 64. Irem onger was caught at cover 3 runs later, his 40 runs including 22 singles. Hardstaff and John Gunn then played out tim e, taking the total to 141 without further loss. On F riday both m en were sent back at 160. Alletson m ade a few good hits and Payton put on 36 for the last w icket in 20 m inutes, the innings closing for 241 after a larger total had appeared probable. On the second m orning F ord and Huggins each took four w ickets for 10 runs, and Board at the w icket was very smart indeed. In a m inority of 98, G loucestershire made a deplor­ able start w hen they went in the second tim e, Board being bowled at 1, Langdon caught at 8, and G odsell bow led at 15, all three wicket3 fall­ ing to Wass at a cost of only 5 runs. Jessop then w ent in and practically m onopolised the scoring. H e took 20 m inutes to make his first 20 runs, but afterwards hit so freely that he com pleted his 50 out of 85 in 40 m inutes, scor­ ing 6, 4, 2, and 6 off consecutive balls from H allam . H e afterwards m ade 56 of the next 60 in 40 m inutes, scoring, therefore, his 106 out of 145 in eighty m inutes. H e gave no chance, scored off 44 of 80 balls he received, and hit four 6’s, a 5, and seven 4’s. Ford hit tw o consecutive balls from John Gunn on to the Pavilion roof, whilst Jellie, w ho was last out, batted very patiently for 27. N otts were left 119 to w in, and, by the end of the day, had m ade 42 for the loss of the wickets o f George Gunn and Hallam. On Satur­ day Hardstaff was bow led at 81, and, after John Gunn had been stum ped at 114, the balance of the runs was hit off, N otts winning by six wickets. Irem onger scored 51 not out, and had a good deal to do with the success of his side. Score and analysis:— G lou cestersh ire . F irst innings. Second innings.
