Cricket 1914

J u n e 20, 1914. THE WORLD OF CRICKET. 271 Second Innings. Garnett and Tyldesley made yet another. Before this all hope of Middlesex’s winning outright had been abandoned, and they had to be content with first innings’ points. L a n c a s h ir e . First Innings. A. H.

Umpires :— Carlin and White! YORKSHIRE v. WARWICKSHIRE. At Dewsbury, June 15, 16, and 17. The visitors made a poor start, Parsons and Kinneir leaving early ; but Charlesworth, at first defensive, soon adopted aggressive tactics. For 185 minutes Quaife partnered him, and during that time 236 were added, of which the little man’s share was about a quarter. But he was playing as great a game for his side as the hitter at the other end. Charlesworth made his 206 out of 283 while in, chiefly by hard and often lofty drives, and hit 2 sixes and 27 fours. He batted 3 hrs. 50 min. for his runs, and gave no actual chance. Quaife was in 3$ hours for his 63. At call of time Warwickshire were 353 for 6. Smith and Jeeves, the overnight not outs, carried their partnership to 61 on Tuesday. The innings was declared at 424. Smith’s 62 were made in capital form during a stay of 110 minutes. The home side’s innings had a sensational start, for Foster bowled Wilson at 2 and Denton at 3. Then Rhodes was missed in the slips, and he and Oldroyd added 52 for the third wicket by cautious methods. Five wickets were down for 97, and Rhodes was sixth out at 136, having batted 160 minutes for his 66, quite free from ohance. Booth and Birtles then hit out well, adding 91 in 65 minutes. The latter, who was the freer of the two, hit 9 fours. Though Burton also made a useful score, the follow-on could not be averted, and at call of time Yorkshire had lost Sir Archibald White, who had gone in with Dolphin for the five minutes left, and had only 2 on the board. Both Dolphin and Rhodes scored freely on Wednesday, and 45 were added in half-an-hour. Rhodes and Wilson put on 97 for the third wicket, and Denton and Oldroyd for the fifth. Denton was missed at 14, and as it turned out this mistake probably lost Warwickshire the game. Booth made runs, too, and Yorkshire were able to declare, setting their opponents 184 to get for victory. There was not time to make the runs ; but before play ended Warwick had lost 4 wickets for 85. They took first innings’ points, of course. W a r w ic k s h ir e . First Innings.

Umpires : Moss and Phillips. KENT v. HAMPSHIRE. At Tonbridge, June 15, 16, and 17. The Tonbridge Week began under the pleasantest of conditions. A. P. Day replaced Hatfeild in the Kent side, and E. M. Sprot returned to the leadership of Hants, but Major Greig was an absentee. The visitors started badly. Stone and Newman left at 26, Bowell at 47, and Remnant and Brown at 54. Sprot and Mead then made a good stand, the captain hitting well while his partner played in very stolid style. They added 149 in 135 minutes, and Sprot’s share of these was 86, made without a chance, and including 14 fours. Kennedy stayed with Mead while 61 were added, and Jaques hit one ball clean out of the ground. Mead, ninth out, batted 255 minutes for his 117, playing a defensive game for the greater part of the time. He hit 11 fours, and gave only one chance— at 57. Kent lost Hardinge with only 2 scored in the short period of play before the close. So good were the bowling and fielding of Hampshire on Tuesday that it took three-quarters of an hour to get the first 10 hoisted, and the spectators indulged in some ironical applause. Four wickets were down for 21. Brown, bowling very fast, had taken all the three which fell that morning. Woolley and Day improved matters by a stand of 41 ; but it was left to Blythe and Huish to save the follow-on. With a lead of 143 the visitors looked on a good thing; but their first five wickets fell for 61, in spite of a stand of 48 by Stone and Remnant, and with Mead handicapped by an injured leg a very small total appeared probable. But the crack stayed 90 minutes and made 42 ; and with Livesey reaching double figures for the county for the first time the last wicket put on 43, which left Kent 302 to get for victory. Mead reached his 1,000 for the season, the third batsman to do so. Kent’s prospects of success were not improved by the loss of Hardinge and Seymour during the last 40 minutes, and at the close, with 8 to go, they still needed 268. On Wednesday the wicket was found to have worn a bit, and Kent never looked like making the runs. Brown’s dismissal of Humphreys for the second time in the match was a heavy blow to them, and Woolley’s error of judgment in getting in front of a straight one five runs later made the outlook blacker. Four were down for 49, and a good catch by Livesey dismissed Day at 69. Troughton, Hubble, Huish, and Fairservice struggled hard ; but all were out for 168, and Hants won by 133 runs.
