Cricket 1908

252 CRICKET A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. J uly 2, 1908, YO R K SH IR E v. SOMERSET. Played at Dewsbury on June 29 and 30. Yorkshire won by eight wickets. A s the result of som e very level crick et, six­ teen w ickets w ent dow n on M onday for 285 runs. L ord H aw ke reappeared for Y orkshire, fo r w hich county B ooth m ade his debut. Som erset lost Braund and Capt. P oyntz in th e first over for 3 runs, and, notw ithstanding: a partnership of 44 by L ew is and W hittle, six w ickets fell in 70 m inutes fo r 52 runs. D aniell and B anks then m ade a fine resistance, p u ttin g on 61 in 65 m inutes, the form er b attin g steadily and w ell • fo r 130 m inutes before being out to a very good catch at short-leg. The in nings closed lo r 160, and, in response, Y orkshire m ade 125 fo r six w ickets du rin g the rest of the day. O f the 68 runs added in 37 m inutes fo r the second w icket w ith M yers, D enton claim ed as m any as 5 3: he hit eleven 4’s and played free and very sound cricket. On the second m orning, w hen the eighth w icket fell at 144, it seem ed likely that there w ould be little betw een the sides on the innings, but H irst upset all such calculations by m aking 58: w ith Bates he put on 63 in 50 m inutes, and w ith H aw ke 33 in 25. H e took 95 m inutes to score 58 and h it eleven 4’s. The in nings closed fo r 240, leavin g Som erset 80 behind. . The visitors, w hen th ey w ent in the second tim e, fared badly and set Y orkshire only 53 to w in, a num ber they obtained for the loss of M yers and L ord H aw ke. Score and analysis : S omerset .

G loucestershire, w ithout F ord and H uggins, were not at fu ll strength, w hile the visitors also were handicapped b y the absence of East. The hom e side lost E. Barnett, Langdon, and D ipper for 21, w hilst Jessop, a fter being m issed when 4 and again just afterw ards, was bow led at 45. A t th o same total Board also w as bow led, and it wras due to D ennett and C. Barnett, who added 50 fo r the eighth w icket, that the total reached 114.
