i6 6 CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. J une 3, 1909. CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY v. YORK­ SHIRE. Played at Cambridge on May 27 and 28. Cambridge University won by six wickets. The visiting side was not at full strength for this match, Hirst and Rhodes playing at Birmingham, and Linaker, of Huddersfield, making his dSbut for the county. The opening day’s play, which favoured the University, was seriously curtailed by rain. When Yorkshire had made 30 without loss, Lock­ hart was put on and proved very successful. Half the wickets were down for 58, but an improvement was effected by Radcliffe and Burton, who added 22 in 25 minutes, and by Haigh and Newstead, who put on 38 in 20. Lockhart’s slow leg-breaks accounted for five wickets in 15 overs. The University lost Wright at 27, but after his dismissal Collins remained with Nason for an hour, during which time 49 were added without further loss. On Friday Collins was caught and bowled when his stand with Nason had resulted in 58 being added for the second wicket. A collapse followed his departure, but Nason, who reached 50 in 140 minutes, found another good partner in Lockhart, with whom 42 were put on for the seventh wicket in 40 minutes. The Sussex cricketer was then dismissed in an unfortunate manner. He had hit a couple of 4’s off Linaker, and in making a third overbalanced himself and broke his wicket. He batted 170 minutes for 78, hit thirteen 4’s, and offered no chance. The innings closed for 179, and the county lost a couple of wickets before the arrears had been made up. Then five wickets went down for 13 in half-an-hour, and although Radcliffe made a few good hits, the innings amounted to only 88. Lock­ hart took eight wickets for 45 runs, making his record for the match thirteen for 117. Tufnell stumped seven and caught one in the two innings of Yorkshire, seven of his victims being off Lock­ hart’s bowling. The University, set 48 to win, made the number for the loss of four wickets.

E.) at Birmingham, neither side was fully represented. Langdon, upon opening the Gloucestershire innings with Godsell, quickly got off the mark, but his partner batted nearly 20 minutes ere making a run. The stand for the first wicket realised 2-5 in 35 minutes, but at lunch six men were out for 61 as the result of an hour and a-half’s play. Huggins and Mills put on 19 for the eighth wicket and Parker and Dennett 14 for the last, but the total reached only 124. Sussex lost Vine in the first over and Relf at 15, but Killick (who batted an hour and a-quarter for 39) and Chaplin put on 44 together, and Leach and Cox 40, so that at the end of the day the home side, with three wickets in hand, were 39 runs on. On Friday Sussex took their total to 220, Cox and Smith both scoring well. Dennett’s six wickets cost 13 runs each. With arrears amounting to 96, Gloucester­ shire fared so badly upon going in the second time that in three-quarters of an hour before lunch they lost half their wickets for 31. After the interval the innings closed for 48, Dipper, who batted 70 minutes and was last out, being the only player to make any resistance. Leach took six wickets for 27, and with Cox bowled unchanged. The collapse was inexcusable, for the wicket was a very fair one. Score and analysis:— G loucestershire . First innings. R. T.

The home side were obliged to take the field for this match without Brearley and Tyldesley (J. T.), who were at Birmingham. Owing to the state of the wicket after heavy rain, it was not until 2.40 that play could commence on the opening day. Essex lost Reeves at 22 and Douglas at 27, and, with the wicket gradually growing more difficult, run-getting proved no easy matter. Perrin and McGahey added 26 together, and Makepeace, in catching the latter, dislocated the third finger of his left hand. The best batting of the day was shown by Freeman (J.), who carried out his bat for 23. The last six wickets went down for 19 against Huddleston and Dean who bowled unchanged. Lancashire received only 4 balls at the end of the day before rain put an end to the play. The second day’s cricket was marked by a fine partnership by Sharp and Hartley, who, coming together after two wickets had fallen for 40, added 167 in two hours. Hartley hit five 4’s in his 87, for which he batted just under three hours, whilst Sharp hit sixteen 4’s in making 110 out of 194 in 145 minutes. The latter drove well and made some fine strokes to leg, and the only fault he was guilty of was when, at 55, he offered a hard chance to point. Once the pair had been parted the end soon came, Buckenham taking the last seven wickets for. 39 runs in thirteen overs and a ball. In the final hour and a-quarter of the day Essex scored 50 for the loss of Douglas and J. Freeman and, with only Perrin and McGahey offering much resistance on Saturday, Lancashire were left winners by an innings and 75 runs. Score and analysis:— E ssex . First innings. J. W. H. T.
