U c la il ........... ............... 3 1 42 21* 21.0 J. M. Moore (captain), in which office ho gave general satisfaction; a good bat, but unfortunate last season; sometimes bowls with great success; a good and safe field anywhere. J. Radcl iffc, a pretty bat, with line hitting powers, but should bo more careful not to get his legs so often before the wickets; splendid field, throwing from leg remarkably well; fair medium- pace bowler. J. Cardoss , as a bat has greatly improved; at times a most useful fast round-arm bowler ; somewhat slow in the field. R . B. Gradwell , somewhat stiff in his style of batting; a thorough good long-stop against any bowling, therefore a great acquisition to his eleven ; should give moro attention to catching. IT. Alpin , of good service in the bowling depart ment, being straight and steady; has improved in his batting, but still must be more careful to play a straight b a t; fair field. T. Mostyn, a useful field; as a bat shows some pretty cricket; but thinks too much of forward p la y ; requires more strength for hitting, and wants, like most of the eleven, a discretion in running between the wickets. J. Manners , the “ point ” of the eleven, which post he admirably filled ; a terrific hitter to the on, but must practise defence and study patience before he can excel as a bat. F. Breeden , a good man to send in first, being a very steady bat, though at times a little too anxious to h i t ; can hold a catch, but must bo more active in getting to ground balls ; a useful change bowler. A. Beech , with more activity will make a good wicket-keeper; a fair defence, but deficient in hitting powers. G. Keogh , has lots of cricket in him if lie would but work ; should be encouraged in his bowling, which has a good curl from leg; not a safe field. C. Halid , as a bat, hits hard, but has too much flourish to insure a long innings ; might be quicker iu the field. IT. Vdall, a promising bat, combining strong defence, with fair hitting powers ; should practice a little forward p lay ; not quite energetic enough in fielding. _________ The following members arc now, or will be before the commencement of the season of 1S77, in residence at one or other of the two Universities.
