Baron C. R. D. G. von Voigt (Captain ) : Has im- proved with the bat, playing much straighter and more carefully ; a good field and catch , though hardly so safe as last year . * G. H. Nelson : Has disappointed us greatly in batting this year, having no notion of playing with a straight bat ; has bowled fairly occasionally . C. S. Langley : Has batted admirably , and is the mainstay of the team with the bat, the result of careful practice , a straight bat, and fast wickets ; a very good field and catch . * L. Cooper : Has not come on in anydepartment of the game as we could have hoped ; has bowled once or twice with success , but is far too short -pitched as a rule ; a fair field ; poor bat, makingno use of his great reach . R. H. Moss : On his day a very good fast bowler, with high delivery and plenty of spin , should avoid slows on an iron wicket ; with careful practice should make a good bat , as he has a good eye, and hits very hard and clean . *W. F. Hilton : A very careful bat, but very stiff , withnopunishing power. Aconscientious keen field . *H. W. P. Waters : Varies muchin his bowling , fast round arm, affects a curl in the air , which is at times very deadly ; does not pretend to bat ; a very poor field . M. M. Barker : A first -rate cover -point , safe , with smart return ; plays back too much, and too anxious to score at once, but has played a few useful innings ; can bowl. A. Moultrie : Seems quite to have lost the knack of bowling ; bats still in his old style which is peculiar to himself ; a poor field . G. R. Theobald : Wentoff as abat, came in as a bowler ; is always bowled by trying to hit a yorker , mustbe
