Butler : a very fair bat ; defence not very strong ; always likely to make runs on a slow wicket ; should improve very muchnext year ; a good field . *B. A. F. Grieve : a destructive fast underhand bowler ; a steady bat, with a good stroke on the off -side , but weak on the leg -side ; a slow field , but a safe catch . F. H.
