Cricket 1911

A u g u s t 19, 1911. CEICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OP THE GAME. 441 SURREY v. M IDDLESEX. Played at the Oval on August 10 and 1 1 and won by M iddlesex by an innings and 24 runs. Surrey really lost the match on the first day when, going in first upon winning the toss, they were dismissed on a good wicket in two hours and a-quarter for 112 . Middlesex, thanks chiefly to a fourth-wicket stand of 46, gained the lead with only three men out, and when the innings closed were 216 runs on. Hendren, m issed when 24, scored 84 out of 13 5 in 155 minutes : he reached 50 out of 69 in 70 minutes and claimed 63 of the last 88 runs obtained on the first day. H is good work was followed by a fine innings by Mann who, after an unsteady opening, made some brilliant hits, especially to the off : he found a very useful partner in Hearne (J. T.), who, although making only 18, stayed whilst 85 were added for the ninth wicket. Mann batted two hours and a-half and hit a 5 and twelve 4’ s, In Surrey’s second innings the only player to do him self justice was Hobbs, who made 66 of the first 99 runs scored in 65 minutes. He made 50 with Hayward and 4 1 with B ird. Strudwick obtained his 30 out of 37 in 20 m inutes. Score and an aly sis:— S u r r e y . First innings. Hayward, b Hearne (J.

ESSEX y . NOTTINGHAMSHIRE . Played at Leyton on August 10 and 1 1 and won by E ssex by an innings and 26 runs. Batting feebly on a perfect wicket on the first day, Notts were dismissed in two hours and twenty m inutes for 154, the only player to make much resistance being IremoDger, who was missed when 36. Essex, thanks largely to Freem an, who made 137 without a chance in three and a-quarter hours, gained a lead of 172. The player named drove well and turned the ball skilfully to leg, and added 8 1 with Carpenter and 42 with Trem lin. George Gunn carried his bat through the second Notts innings, taking 150 minutes to score 52— a sound display. Jones hit up 40 out of 53 in 25 minutes, but the others did little and Essex won as stated. Score and analysis :— First innings. N o tts . Gunn (G.), c Perrin, b Douglas ..............

TWO SEPARATE HUNDREDS By JESSOP. Played at Southampton on August 10, 1 1 and 12 and left drawn owing to heavy scoring, 1,3 14 runs being made for twenty-one wickets. In m aking 3 17 after having three men out for 56, Gloucestershire owed almost everything to Jessop, who, by faultless cricket, scored 15 3 out of 221 in 110 minutes : he reached 50 in half-an-hour and 100 in 75 minutes, hit two 6’s and twenty-four 4’s, and added 1 1 1 for the fifth wicket with F . B . Roberts (17) in 50 minutes and 105 for the sixth with Langdon (21) in sim ilar time. The m ajority of his runs were obtained by drives and strokes to leg. On the second day of the m atch, when H am pshire made 537 runs for five wickets, Fry scored 258 out of 498 in five hours and a-quarter and carried out his bat. In m aking his highest total in first-class cricket he played with ease and confidence throughout, hit a 5 and 34 fours, offered but two chances—when 220 and 237, and added 246 with Brown for the fourth wicket in less than three hours and 13 5 with McDonell for the sixth in 55 minutes. H is driving was very powerful at times and he hit to leg and cut well, whilst his tim ing and placing were excellent throughout. Brown make no m istake in his 126 . Gloucestershire, in their second innings, ran up 403 for five wickets and were thus 126 runs on with h alf their wickets in hand, and Jetsop well set, when the end came. They owed a good deal to the patience of Dipper, who, let off when 62, made 119 of the first 262 runs in 330 minutes. He made 50 for the first wicket with Board and 124 for the second with A. W. Roberts, who was m issed several times. Subsequently Jessop ’s play dwarfed everything else. He reached 100 in 80 minutes and obtained his 12 3 out of 195 in 95, making no m istake and hitting twenty-two 4’s. He added 54 with Dipper, 7 1 (in 30 minutes) with Langdon and 70 with F . B . Roberts. Score and a n a ly sis:— First innings. G lo u c e s t e r s h ir e . Second innings. Board, run out ......................... Dipper, lbw, b Brown .............. A. W.
