On the first day the w icket was slow at the start but it im proved after lunch. K ingston was soon bow led by Warren, but Vials and East atoned in a measure for his early dow nfall by putting on 53 for the second w icket in 55 m inutes. Vials m ade his 46 in 85 m inutes w ithout a m istak e; he hit seven 4’s and m ade som e capital strokes to leg. Thom pson and Cox added 32 in 40 m inutes, but the total was only 140 w hen the sixth w icket fell. Subsequently Manning m ade a useful 19, and, w ith Buswell and Wells adding 44 in 25 m inutes, the innings realised 231. Bestw ick took six w ickets for 87 runs, but bow led better than the figures w ould suggest. The visitors fared badly against Thom pson, w ho kept a fine length and got plenty of spin on the ball. When play ceased four w ickets were dow n for 45, M orton carrying out his bat for 18. On Friday the w icket assisted the bow lers to a considerable extent, and Derbyshire lost thoir last six w ickets for 30 runs in 40 m inutes. Thom pson, w hose analysis was seven for 20, took his last four w ickets in eight balls for 2 runs. I 11 the foliow -on, W right batted 70 m inutes for 19, and put on 30 for the second w icket w ith Morton. Carlin and Warren added 28 quickly for the seventh w icket, but the innings defeat could not be avoided. East took five w ickets for 22 runs. Score and analysis :— N orth am ptonsh ire . W . H .

Played at Worcester on June 18, 19, and 20. Worcestershire won by two wickets. On a rain-dam aged w icket Ham pshire, w ho won the toss and had first innings, lost Bowell and Mead for 26, Cuffe securiug the dism issal of both. U pon Sprot joining Llewellyn a great im provem ent was effected, tho pair putting on 81 together in 70 m inutes for the third w icket before the amateur was caught at the w icket for a very useful 46. The good w ork w as continued b y W hite, w ho scored 51 in an hour and a-quarter b y w atchful cricket and in partnership w ith Stone put on 70 for the fifth w ick e t; ho hit eight 4’s. W ith the total 173 Sim pson-H ayward was put on and his lobs m et w ith such success that the last six w ickets fell for 32 runs, the last five for 28. In this w ay the innings closod for 222—a very fair total considering that the w icket helped the bowlers to som e extent. I 11 the course of ten overs Sim pson-H ayw ard obtained four w ickets for 19 runs. Foster and Bow ley gave the hom e side a capital start, m aking 71 together ere the professional was caught at the w icket. A t 87 Rem nant was put on, and w ith the first ball he delivered bow led Foster, w ho had played a charac­ teristic innings o f 83. A t the end of the day three w ickets were dow n for 103, the gam e then being in a very open position. On Friday B um s was out in Rem nant’s first over, and, although Cuffc and Pearson added 49 for the fifth w icket in 50 m inutes, nine m en were out for 189. A t this point it seem ed likely that the visitors w ould gain a useful lead 011 the innings, but H unt and Gaukrodger, staying together 50 m inutes, put 011 54, giving W orcestershire an advantage of 21. When H am pshire w ent in the second tim e Burns opened the bow ling and quickly m et w ith success. Bow ell was bow led by the second ball he sent dow n w ithout a run scored, Llew ellyn caught at m id-on at 22, and Mead held at point at 37. Sprot, w ho had gone in w hen the first w icket fell, played confident cricket and found useful partners in W hite and Stone, w ho helped to add 52 for the fourth w icket and 47 for the fifth respec­ tively. Sprot played a faultless innings and m ade his 108 out of 157 in tw o hours and tw enty m inutes ; a feature of his batting was his driving, w hich was very clean and pow erful, although only six 4's wprc included am ong his hits. A fter his dism issal the three rem aining w ickets quickly fell, and W orcester­ shire, w ith a w nole day before them , were left w ith 211 to w in. Foster was bow led for 19 at 31, and at 53 Bow ley was caught at slip. Arnold and Pearson added 58 for the third w icket in 35 m inutes, and at lunch tim e W orcestershire, w ith seven w ickets in hand, w anted only 85 to w in. A n easy victory for the hom e side appeared probable, but five w ickets quickly fell and 17 runs were still wanted w hen the eighth w ent dow n. Cuffe played steadily and w ell and undoubtedly saved the side. Ham pshire m ade a great effort and nearly succceded in pulling off the game. Score and analysis:— H ampshire . First innings.
