1 7 0 LILLYWHITE'SC R I C K E T E R S' A N N U A L. the earlier matches; has fallen off very much; a feeble bat. F. Hayward: nervous and slow in his movements on first going to the wicket , but gradually gaining confidence plays well , using his wrists and cutting freely , rather weak on the leg-side ; is on the whole one of the most promising membersof the eleven . T. R. P. Herbert (captain ) : a steady and careful batsman, whose long reach should render him more effective in punishing over -pitched bowling ; his patient defence has proved of much service to theeleven; with the ball he has on several occasions proved effective ti.Jugh b ynomeansreliable ; a useful and hard-working field anywhere near the wicket ; was awarded the bat for highest average. G. H. Jenkins : bats in good style , though most unfortunate in getting runs ; allows the bowler to drive him too muchon to his wicket ; as a slow round-arm bowler he is likely to prove useful and effective ; bowled extremely well in several matches. L. Loy: the best bowlerin the eleven ; somewhatoverdid it at the commencement of the season , and fell off considerably , but recovered himself ; successful on his day; as a batsman endeavours to succeed ; carried off the bat for bowling . M. R. Neligan : bats with considerable freedom, hitting well all round; unfortunately lacks defensive powers ; fields well and sometimes even brilliantly at point ; a very useful all -round cricketer , as he also takes the wicket with considerable dexterity . R.Penn: admirable as long-stop , losing no time in returning the ball ; a promising round-armbowler of mediumpace, with some break; stands well at the wicket, and ought to improve in batting . S. Tulloch : has proved a pains- taking and effective bowler ; works hard in the field ; bats in good style , andought to obtain manymoreruns thanhe does. S U R R E YC O U N T Y S C H O O L .
