Cricket 1908

A p r il 23, 1908. CRICKET A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. &7 ball is near, where it would not be safe for the one at that wicket to start; but you had better lose a run than risk a wicket. “ RUNNING BETWEEN THE WICKETS. “ Run with the bat on the outside of your partner, taking care not to run against him, for in so doing you may lose a run, and probably a wicket. If one Striker be left-handed and the other right, they should agree on which side they will pass each other in running. “ TO CATCH OR STOP THE BALL. “ It is necessary in catching a ball, to step well to it, and receive it into the hand with ease, rather yielding to the force, and keeping the eye steadily fixed on it ; and at the moment of catching the fingers must be extended to receive the ball, and shut the instant it is caught. It is like­ wise necessary in stopping a ball to get before it so as to meet it full, and if it is coming with a bound, wait, or step in, as the case may require ; if close to the ground, and fast, care must be taken to putting down the hands with sufficient quickness. “ THE FIELDSMEN. “ BOWLER. “ A Bowler will soon discover where the Striker means to hit the Ball, and he will after delivering it, endeavour to place himself in a situation to stop i t ; but if it should be hit away, he must return to his wicket to take the Ball if thrown to him. If a Batsman goes out of his ground, with an intent to run before the Ball is de­ livered, the Bowler may put him out. (To be continued.) MINOK COUNTY AVERAGES. (Continuedfrompage 48.) BEDFORDSHIRE.
