Cricket 1910

CRICKET A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. A u g u s t i i , 1 9 1 0 . WORCESTERSHIRE v. YORKSHIRE. Played at "Worcester on August 4, 5 and 6. Drawn. With three of the brothers Foster in their side, Worcestershire were well represented in this match, but Yorkshire, journeying from Manchester after their defeat by an innings and over 100 runs, batted during the whole of Thursday, scoring 361 for eight wickets. The foundation of the fine total was laid by Rhodes and Wilson, who made 83 for the first wicket in 65 minutes. Of that number the latter, playing more freely than usual, claimed 52: he hit six 4’s. At lunch three wickets were down for 126, and after Hirst’s dismissal at 147 Rhodes and Myers added 54 in an hour. Rhodes was in for over three hours and a-quarter for 87 and hit a 5 and seven 4’s. Myers and Booth put on 50 in 40 minutes and subse­ quently Haigh, hitting splendidly, made 67 of the last 91 runs in an hour and carried out his bat. Friday’s play was marked by a splendid innings on the part of R. E. Foster, who, making his first appearance for the county for the season, scored 133 by brilliant cricket at a critical time. He went in when two wickets were down for 4 runs and was ninth out, at 209. Therefore he made his 133 out of 205 in three hours and a-quarter. He hit a 6, four­ teen 4’s and three 3’s, and put on 49 for the third wicket with Bowley and 101 for the fifth with Arnold. Not a chance marred his innings, which was marked by a great variety of strokes and skilful placing of the ball. Despite his great effort it appeared likely that the follow-on would not be saved as 54runs were required when theninth wicket fell. Burrows and Bale, however, were equal to the occasion and in the last 80 minutes of the day added 90 runs without being parted. On the third morn­ ing they were separated without addition, Yorkshire accordingly being left with a lead of 113. Going in again, the visitors made 234 with four men out, Wilson, after scoring 50 in an hour, reaching his hundred in 125minutes. Drivingwith great power, he hit seventeen 4’s and with Bates put on 95; he gave one chance, when 94. Worcestershire were left with 348 to win in three hours, and a draw was always assured. Bowley and Pearson scored 129 in 90 minutes for the first wicket and H. K. Foster was seen to advantage in making 53. Score and analysis:— Y o r k s h ir e . First innings. Second innings.

Owing to rain play on the first day of this match was restricted to 55 minutes, during which Essex, who won the toss, scored 37 for the loss of four wickets. There were several interruptions by rain during Friday, but in the time available Essex completed their innings‘for 212 and got one Notting­ ham wicket down for a single. Gillingham and McGahey remained together until their stand had realised 77 in 100minutes. The latter found another partner in Gibson, who helped to add 49 in less than an hour. McGahey did not give a chance in making 89 not out, but it was not the kind of innings the occasion called for, being altogether too slow. At the end of the day Notts opened their innings in a bad light, and lost Riley for a single. On Saturday George Gunn was at once missed in the long-ficld by Freeman (E.). and the blunder probably cost Essex the game. The two Gunns put on 42 for the fifth wicket, and Iremonger and Lee also made useful scores, but Essex wrere 49 ahead on the innings. The home team made many blunders in the field, their fielding altogether being very poor. Upon going in again Essex quickly lost their advantage, Iremonger and Riley, bowling unchanged, getting rid of the side in an hour and a-half for 58 on a damaged wicket. This left Notts 108 to win in 100 minutes—a very interesting position, taking the state of the ground into consideration. At the end of 40 minute3 five men were out for 31, and a win for Essex appeared highly probable. Alletson, however played a fine game, and in the next 40 minutes obtained 46 out of 66, giving his side the advantage. Lee stayed whilst 9 runs were added, and then, with Oates and Iremonger in, the winning hit was made within three minutes of time. Essex deserved to lose, their fielding when they were in a winning position being deplorable. Score and analysis: — ES3EX. First innings. J. W. H. T.
