33 No. I I —A slow or medium pace left-handed bowler (round-arm). S. S. Strikers. 1. Bowler. 5. Point. 9. Long-off. 2. Wicket-keeper. 6. Cover-point. 10. Mid-on. 3. Short-slip. 7. Cover-point (forward). 11. Short-leg. 4. Third man. 8. Mid-off. U. U. Umpires. Nowadays long-stop is usually dispensed with, but he should not be removed unless bowling is very straight and wicket-keeping very sure. In this case it would be advisable to place mid-off (No. 8) further back, and placo No. 9 at long-stop. With a good on-hitter, however, like Mr. W. G. Grace, the on-side must be strengthened by the removal of No. 12 to a position on the on-side between 10 and 11. Mr. Buchanan is the best specimen of the slow left, and James Lillywhite, jun,, of the medium pace left round arm bowler. 4
