Cricket 1908

364 CRICKET : A - WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. A ugust 20, 1908. and Bignell and Llewellyn added 43 for the sixth wicket. Apart from a few useful hits by Stone, the tail did nothing, the innings closing for the total mentioned. On Tuesday Gloucestershire gave a dis­ appointing display, and at the end of the day were only 9 runs on with six wickets down in their second innings. Board made his (50 out of 109 in one hundred minutes, hitting seven 4’s and showing the best cricket of the day, whilst Jessop made 40 out of 47 in twentj’-five minutes, a 0 and seven 4’s being his cMef scoring strokes. In the follow-on Barnett and A. W. Roberts put on 03 for the third wicket, the latter playing capitally on his first appearance for the county : he hit nine 4’s during the eighty minutes he was in. Llewellyn, who took seven wickets in the first innings, did not repeat his success in the follow-on. Yesterday the end soon came, Hampshire winning by nine wickcts.

SU S S E X v. WARW ICKSH IRE. Played at Brighton on August 17 ,18 , and 19. Drawn. Warwickshire played an innings of 390 on Monday, but they had Sussex to thank for their success, for Glover was missed four times and Goodwin three, and each obtained over a hundred. After Fishwick had been caught at the wicket at 13, Kinneir and Baker added 78 in an hour and a quarter. Half the side were out for 124, and, although Glover and Lilley added 49 in thirty-five minutes the sixth wicket went down at 173. Then came the long partnership of Glover and Goodwin which lasted ninety-five minutes and put on 179 runs for the seventh wicket. Goodwin made his first hundred in a big match, but should have been out for 13, whilst Glover, who carried out his bat for 117, ought to have been dismissed for 20. Goodwin hit fifteen 4’s and Glover eighteen. Young and Vine, though slow at first, gave Sussex an excellent start. The former, when 11, was missed at slip off Santall, and the visitors bad to pay a heavy price for the blunder. Play was slow at times, but, considering the state of the game, justifiable. Young, how­ ever, batted freely when once set, and the total for the first wicket was taken to 197 before he was caught for 107, matfe in one bund: ed and eighty five minutes. He hit thirteen 4’s, and played capitally in the latter part of his innings. Vine, second out at 244, batted two hundred and twenty- five minutes, obt ining two 5’s and six 4’s and giving only one chance—to Lilley when 83. Killick showed fine form during the seventy minutes he was in, and Robert Relf and Vincett scored freely, the latter claiming 30 of the 53 added with the elder Relf in forty minutes. A t the end of the day seven were down for 385. Yesterday the innings closed for an additiona 44, Sussex thus obtaining a lead of 39. Kinneir and Fishwick gave the visitors a useful start by making 51 for the first wicket, but Baker was caught when he had made only 10. Quaife and Charlesworth, however, scored so well that the innings was closed with only four wickets down. Sussex had not time to make the runs, the game ending in a draw.

M IDD LESEX. Played at Nottingham on August 17, 18, «nd 19. Middlesex won by an innings and 93 runs. The home side gave a very feeble d:splay on Mon­ day, being dismissed on a good wiekct for 133. The first wicket realised 30 runs and the second 39, but half the side were out for 94. Har istaff, out to the last ball before lunch, batted steadily for an hour and a-quarter, but Turner hit fre. ly and put on 20 for the last wicket with Wass. Wells bowled his slows very well, varying his pace finely and taking five wickcts for 39 runs. Warner and Moon, in just over two hours, scored 101 for the first wicket of Middlesex. Moon was then lbw for a vigorous inn­ ings of 90, which contained six 4’s. At the end of the day Warner and Douglas put on 21 without further loss, the former carrying out his bat for 70 when stumps were drawn owing to failing light. When play was resumed on Tuesday Hardstaff kept wicket instead of Jones, though the latter resumed the duties during the Douglas-Tarrant partn* rsliip. With only 14 added Warner w’as caught and bowled for a faultless innings of 87 made out of 190 in one hundred and sixty minutes. Tarrant then joined Douglas and played bright cricket from the start. After being missed in the slips when 5 and at the wicket when 35, he completed his 50 out of 81 in three quarters of an hour, whereas Doug’as batted one hundred minutes before reaching his half- century. The third wicket added 100 in an hour and a half and then Douglas, who hit seven 4's, was caught at long-< ff for 80, made out cf 195 in one hundred and-twenty-five minutes. With Harrison in Tarrant reached three figures after batting one hundred and fifteen minutes, and a further 80 were put on in fifty-five minutes. The next few wickets fell quickly, but after Trott had made 20 out of 41 the innings was closed with eight wickets down for 534. Tarrant batted three hours and a half for his excellent 144, hitting well all round the wicket and making nine 4’s. Notts lost George Gunn at 9 and James at 40, but Hardstaff and Payton then put on 90 without being parted, the latter reaching 50 out of 72 in an hour. On Wednesday, Hardstaff made only four more ere being dismissed, and Payton but three. Iremonger made 24 in quick time, and although John Gunn scored a useful 22, six wickets were down for 183. Turner and Jones added 43 for the sixth wicket, and the latter and Hallam 73 for the eighth, but when the innings closed, Notts were still almost 100 behind. Jones hit a 0 and eleven 4’s in his finely hit 74, but received poor support. Score and analysis :— N otts . First innings. Second innings. A. O.

NORTHAMPTONSHIRE v. E S S E X . Played at Northampton on August 17, 18, and 19. Ess( x won by an innings and 70 runs. The visitors showed their appreciation of the fine wicket provided by staying in the whole of the first day and making 340 for four wickets. Such a fine total did not at onetime appear likely, for Reeves was caught in the long-field at 9, Douglas finely caught at 20, and Perrin lbw at 53, made in an hour. The association of McGahey and Turner, however, effected a great change, for by excellent cricket the pair added 230 for the fourth wicket in two hundred and five minutes. Of that number Turner, who hit to leg and cut well, made 117 ere being caught in the long-field : he hit fourteen 4’s, but was missed when 70 at cover-point. At the end of the day McGahey, after batting four hours and three-quarters, carried out his bat for 175. On Tuesday Freeman remained in until the fifth wicket had put on 91 in eighty
