James Lillywhite's Cricketers' Annual 1875

80 exhibition of free hitting. The Tasmanians batted well, though the ton8or of Mitcham was absent to 011r disadvantage. One Walker (W. H.), a pat­ ronymic not unknown to cricket fame, scored 31 fn the most extravagant �t y le, and a certain Barnes (R.), of more local note, 28. In the lilecond innings a "party by the name of" Whitesides headed the score with 31, and J.A.rllnr and E. Lucas each made 31. They made a good show, but were none the less beaten by eight wickets. For the Twenty-two Bailey (fast rouad), bowled in splendid form. His analysis shows 120 overs for 119 rnns and eight wio�ts. EXGLA.ND . Mr. W. O. Grace, b Bayly • • 29 Mr. F. H.

Victoria won the toss. Maledic­ tions on that coin of W. G. Grace-but their batting was not lively, as their innings of 150 lasted positively five hours. W. G. Grace and Jupp, .for a 11,01.'elty, went in together, and to their dismay, had to face a new assailant in a slow ro11nd-arm bowler, one 1\fu.rphy, ,vho, I h�ve reason to believe, was not unco11nected with the green isle of Erin. Jupp oned and was bowled. W. G. sixty-foured without a ghost of a chance, and Greenwood foured more than thirty. Only four of us were down for 109, but there was a heavy d 1 ·ead when eight hacl fallen for 127. We headed the Victorians by 16 runs. the Lord be praised, The second effort of the Victorians w�s not so dashing as they would have led us to expect. Southerton and Lillywhite trundled them dowi1 without mercy, and ten wickets collapse-d for 53 runs. It was a good opportunity for rain to interfere, and the Victorians arranged that cle,,.e1·ly. All the second night heavy 1�ain spe11t itself over the grotmd, and on the third morning when we were about to commence, a thunderstorm broke over the scene, in case, by any mishap, the Victorians should have had the worst of it at the finish, They work the weathe1� well in Australia.
