Cotterill (Capt.) : Continues to bat in first -class style , with a very true and steady defence , and, towards the end of the season , with a considerable increase in the freedom and vigour of his batting ; his fielding is not quite up to the standard of his batting ; he ought to come out as a slow bowler . *F. H. O'Donoghue : A somewhat fluky bat ; hits very hard whenhe does get hold of the ball ; his bowling is decidedly expensive . S. M. T. Woods: Bats in a rather peculiar style , but with great success , his late cutting being very pretty ; his bowling , very fast and very straight , did great execution , and wasthe chief cause of the great success of the season ; his fielding is excel- lent . G. L. Wilson : Acapital bat , with a free and taking style , but, perhaps , a little too eager to hit ; an excellent fielder , and a most effective bowler. W. T. Richardson : Bats left -hand, and, whenhe has learnt (by steady practice on a sound pitch ) to play a ball in front of his legs , will bat well ; he can be a smart fielder whenhe likes . N. C. Cooper : Bats in excellent style , and shows good form all round, whenhe gets more power will undoubtedly develop into a good cricketer . * L. C. Raymond : Adisappointing bat, only coming off once in the season , but with better practice , and perhaps if he were sent in later , wethink he mightsoon recover his form ; hewas most useful as a long-stop . W. S. Paskin : Batstimidly , though he has a good eye and a clean action ; fields well , and is a useful change bowler . *C. H. Bond: Auseful fielder , but a poor bat. H. D. L. Woods: A good fielder , but his batting shows more energy than style . W. Harris: Bats with great spirit and energy , but in a somewhat uncertain style whichmight be amendedby a morepainstaking practice of defence ; he is nearly always a smartfielder .

Wreford-Brown (Capt.) : A splendid bat, his cutting being especially good ; has scored most consistently throughout the season ; a very good slow bowler , with a lot of break both ways, anduses his head well ; a fine field at mid-off , and has been an excellent cap- tain ; should show to great advantage next year. *H.
