!74 CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. J u n e 2 , 1 9 1 0 . YORKSHIRE v. HAMPSHIRE. Played at Bradford on May 30, 31 and June 1. Drawn. After two seasons, Yorkshire and Hampshire met again, and their match created much interest. The hom e side fared very badly upon going m after winning the toss, losing Rhodes, Denton and Rothery in 27 minutes for 24 runs. Wilkinson played plucky cricket for an hour and a-half and Drake remained with him whilst 41 were added for the fifth wicket. Seven men, however, were out for 06, and then the much-needed recovery was effected by Myers and Haigh, who, in 68 minutes, put on 01 for the eighth wicket. Haigh made some good hits, and Myers took out his bat for a skilful 50 when the innings closed for 194. In three-quarters of an hour Hampshire lost Greig, Mead and Llewellyn for 39 runs, and the rain caused stumps to be drawn. On Tuesday Hampshire got to within 14 of their oppo­ nents’ total, but for their recovery they owed almost everything to the tail. After their seventh wicket had fallen at 61 Sprot and Newman put on 75 together in 55 minutes, the former then being caught in the long-field for 52. Moore and Kennedy put on 31 for the last wicket, the former showing very promising form. In the last two hours and a-quarter of the day Yorkshire made 150 for three wickets. Rothery was bowled at 2, and both Rhodes and Denton left at 54. Hirst and Wilkin­ son then added 96 without being parted, but had Newman accepted a catch from the latter their partnership would have realised only 5. A t the end of the day Hirst was 62 not out. Altogether, the lourth wicket put on 112 in 110 minutes. Wilkinson left at 166 and eighteen later Hirst was bowled whilst tr/in g to pull. The latter played a lucky innings, and during the two hours he was in hit eleven 4’s. Afterwards Newman bowled with such success that Yorkshire’s last seven wickets fell for 82 in 75 minutes. Set 247 to win, Hants commenced badly, Greig being out without a run and Mead when he had made only 2. Bowell played a good game, however, and at lunch four wickcts were down for 65. Rain afterwards descended heavily, and caused the game to be given up. Score and analysis:— Y o r k sh ir e . Second innings. First innings.

CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY v. KENT. Played at Cambridge on May 30, 31 & June 1. Kent won by ten wickets. After losing the toss, Kent were in slightly the better position at the end of the first day, when, in response to a total of 234, they had made 155 for four wickets. The University innings was marked by a couple of useful partnerships, Kidd and Ireland adding 60 for the second wicket and Lockhart and Adams 58 for the last. The best batting was that of Kidd, who batted for two hours and a-quarter with­ out a mistake and hit seven 4’s. Fielder again bowled well, taking six wickets for less than ten runs each. Kent lost Dillon and Seymour for 44, but Humphreys added 75 with Hutchings in 35 minutes and 36 with Woolley, and, when stumps were drawn upon the last-namod’s dismissal, carried out his bat for 53. On Tuesday rain prevented a ball being bowled until ten minutes past two. Humphreys quickly settled down to a good game, but when 57 had been added was caught at third man after batting 150 minutes for 83, in which were a 5 and six 4’s. With Hubble 57 had been added for the fifth wicket. Of the others only Blythe, who helped to put on 27 for the last wicket, did much, and the County’s lead was restricted to 33. When Cambridge went in again the ground was very treacherous and Blythe was in his element. He was, in fact, almost unplayable, taking six wickets for 18 runs. At the end of the day the University, with one wicket in hand, were only two runs on. Yesterday the game was finished in 20 minutes, Kent winning by ten wickets.

R. D. C. Collins, the New Zealand Senior at Cam­ bridge, made 157 not out for Trinity College v. St. John’s College on Monday. SURREY v. GLOUCESTERSHIRE. Played at the Oval on May 30, 31 and June 1. Gloucestershire won by six wickets- Although without Hayward, Hayes and Marshal, Surrey scored 30S on Monday, notwithstanding that they lost their eighth wicket at 185. The first part of the innings was marked by good batting by Harrison, who made 48 out of 104 in 95 minutes. Davis played a free game but received little support until Strud­ wick helped him to put on 96 in 45 minutes. Davis, bowled in trying to drive, scored 93 in 115 minutes without a mistake, and hit fourteen 4’s. The tenth wicket added a further 27, Strudwick being last out for a lucky but plucky 46. Gloucestershire, after losing two wickets for 31, had 102 on the board by the end of the day without further loss, Langdon (51) and Mills (31) being the not-outs. In all, their stand for the third wicket amounted to 100, and after the latter had been caught at the wicket Langdon and Jessop put on 105 together in 55 minutes. Of that number the latter, though playing a quieter game than usual, scored 66, his hits in­ cluding a 6 (5 overthrow) and seven 4’s. Langdon, seventh out, made the highest score of his career, obtaining 156 out of 311 in just over four hours. His chief strokes were a 6 and sixteen 4’s, but he was missed twice and on two occasions played a ball from Knox on to his wicket without removing a bail. At the end of the day Surrey made 15 without loss, being then 4 runs behind with all their wickets in hand. The day’s play had been much interfered with by rain, not a ball being bowled until just before three. On the third morning the home side gave a very disappointing display, the innings closing very soon after lunch for 115. Dennett, who took six of the wickets for 39 runs, was ably seconded by Board, and Harrison, with 37, was the only player to reach 20. Knox and Lees put on 96 for the last wicket, but Dennett nevertheless took his last five wickets for 15 runs. Gloucestershire never seemed to be in difficulties when they went in to get 97. Board and Langden, by making 44 for the opening partner­ ship, practically put the result beyond doubt, but the remaining 53 runs cost three more wickets. Score and analysis :— S u r r e y .
