Cricket 1909

2 9 4 CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. J uly 29, 1909. ESSEX y. LANCASHIRE. Played at Leyton on July 22, 23 and 24. Drawn. Both sides were very strongly represented for this match and some good cricket was seen. Lancashire lost Hartley aud Tyldesley for 25 and Sharp at 62, but the association of Spooner and Makepeace im proved matters. In 50 minutes they added 61 and then the amateur was caught at the wicket for 60. He was missed at 15and 34 and was not seen at his best: his chief hits were six 4’s. With Hornby in 55 were added in 40 minutes, the fifth wicket not falling until 178. A run later Macleod and Huddleston left to consecutive balls, and tllfe last five wickets fell in 85 minutes for 42. Makepeace, who showed the best cricket of the day, scored 80 out of 158in 130 minutes : he drove well and hit finely to leg and gave no chance. Essex made 127 for three wickets before play ceased. Douglas and Fane made 32-together in 20 minutes and the latter and Perrin 5S in 55. Fane was bowled by a no-ball from Brearley when 9, but offered no chance in his 49. On the second morning McGahey and Gillingham remained together until they had put on 72 in 45 minutes. The former batted an hour and three-quarters for his flawless 54, in which were eight 4’s. Grinter afterwards showed good cricket once he had settled down, and Reeves, who hit as many as nine 4’s -in his 48, helped him to add 66 in 40 minutes. Grinter batted an hour and a half for 49 and carried out his bat when the innings closed with Essex 86 ahead. When Lancashire went in the second time Spooner and Tyldesley played a great game after Hartley’s departure at 12. In 125 minutes they put on 217 for the second wicket by most attractive cricket. Spooner, the first to leave, hit fourteen 4’s, and reached 50 out of 83 in 55 minutes, 100 out of 208 in 125, and, in all, made 113 out of 229 in 140. He was missed when 73 and 97, each time off Reeves, but his timing was perfect and he made runs all round the wicket, especially between cover and third man. Tyldesley made his 50 out of 102 in £ in an hour, 100 of 191 in 105minutes, and, altogether, 114 out of 242 in two hours and a-half : he hit fifteen 4’s, and should have been stumped when 91. Make peace afterwards played steadily whilst Sharp scored readily, and at the end of the day the pair were together with three wickets down for 289. On the third morning Sharp played-on with only a single added, whilst both Macleod and Huddleston were out by 316. Hornby and Makepeace took the total to 346, when the latter was seventh out for a valuable effort of 38. The rest of the innings was marked by a fine display on the part of Hornby, who reached 50 in less than an hour and put on 60 for the eighth wicket w ith Dean. He made his 71 In 80 minutes and was last out. Play before lunch was interrupted by rain on four occasions, and Essex were left only three hours and a-quarter in which to make 338. They lost Douglas to the first ball sent down, but Fane and Perrin added 45 for the second wicket and the latter and McGahey 75 for the third. Gillingham helped to put on 43, and, with four wickets down for 209, stumps were drawn a quarter-of-an-hour before the usual time. Perrin batted three hours for 101 not out, driving with great power and making no mistake. Score and analysis;— L an cash ire . Freeman (J.), b Dean... 1 not out T. G.
