Cricket 1910

J u n e 2 3 , 1910 CRICKET A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 213 LANCASHIRE v. NOTTINGHAMSHIRE. Played at Manchester on June 16,17 and 18. A GREAT PEKFOKMANCE. Lancashire won by two wickets. On a good wickct tho visitors batted the whole of the first day, scoring 35*2 for eight wickets —a good total considering that half the side were out for 151. The start was promising, Jones and Ire­ monger making 50 for tho first wicket in an hour, but no other good stand was made until Allctson joined Hardstaff when 88 were added in 50 minutes. Oates afterwards helped the latter to put on 90 more in an hour and a-half and was not out 53 at the end of the day. Hardstaff scored 100 out of 252 in 210 minutes: he made his runs all round the wicket, hit ten 4’s and offered one chance—when 15. On Friday the last two wickets added 24, and, with tho pitch still in good condition, it was generally thought that the home team would make a good score in their turn. Such, however, was far from being the case for in three hours the whole side were out for 162. Hornby, it is true, was unable to bat owing to an injury to his knee, but on the other hand Notts were without their left-hander, Riley, who was ill. Sharp made his valuable 73 in two hours and hit a 0 and seven 4’s. Though leading by 214, Notts went in again and by the time stumps were drawn had made 138 for two wickets, being then 352 runs on. After Jones ljad been bowled at 20, Iremongcr and G. Gunn added 72 in 80 minutes and the former and Allctson 40 without being separated. Considering how strong a position the side held, their rate of scoring was very sedate. Neither of the not-outs, as it happened, added materially to his score on Saturday, and, with the remaining batsmen attempting—rather unsuccess­ fu lly -to force tho pace, the last six wickets went down for 40 runs. Despite the collapse, Lancashire were set 400 to win, and had five hours and a-quarter in which to make them. When two wickets had fallen for 50 an ordinary finish appeared in prospect, but Tyldesley (J. T.) and Sharp, by putting on 191 together for the third wicket in less than two hours and a-half, made a victory for the home side possible. Sharp hit fourteen 4’s, and Tyldeslcy (J. T.), who made his 1,000th run of the season during the innings, eight. The latter w-as caught at the wicket by Jones, Oates having retired owing to an injury when two wickets had fallen. Ernest Tyldesley and Whitehead added 80 for the fifth wicket, and, with Hornby afterwards doing well, the runs were actually made with 15 minutes to spare. Whitehead made some very powerful hits: his first six scoring strokes were 4’s and his next two G’s. Hornby played a most plucky game and Cook defended very skilfully. (See Gossip). It was a very great performance on the part of the side and one which naturally causcd much enthusiasm. Score and analysis:— N o tts . First innings. Second innings. A.O.

The University met a strong team of the M.C.C. on Thursday last in the last of their home matches, Spooner and Hooman making their first appearance in big cricket during the season. The visitors were dismissed in four hours and a-quarter for 253 on a good wicket—rather a poor score in the circum­ stances. Thompson, going in when three men wrero out for 18, scored 100 out of 222 in three hours and a-half and hit ten 4’s: he was missed when 98, but made no other mistake. The Oxford fielding was very good and some fine catches w’ere made. By the end of the first day Oxford had scored 38 for the loss of Evans and Braddell, and on Friday were all out for 150. Only Altham and Hoomau showed really good cricket, and the former was unlucky enough to bo bowled off his pads. That the wicket was not responsible for the poor total was shown when tho visitors went in, for after half the wickets had fallen for 91 runs, Collins and Teesdale added 156 in an hour and a-half for the sixth. The former, who made his runs by a variety of strokes, scored 102 not out in just two hours, hitting a couple of 6’s and eight 4’s : he gave no chance and did not even make a bad stroke. Teesdale hit nine 4’s, and made several runs by late cutting. When Fane declared the innings closed, the University were set 402 to win and in the last quarter of an hour made eight for tho loss of Evans. On Saturday Pawson was bowled second ball and at 27 Braddell also was dismissed. Hooman did nothing, and only Salo, who was let off when 11, was seen to any advantage.
