James Lillywhite's Cricketers' Annual 1890

THE COUNTIES IN 1889 . 7 7 Middlesex did fairly well to get the Yorkshiremen out for 151-a result due mainlyto the effective bowling of Mr. Nepean, whodismissed five batsmen at a cost of 44 runs. W i t hthree wickets of Middlesex d o w nfor 57 on the first night , the game looked very even , but Peel and Wainwright , helped by the ground, were very successful on the second morning, and the total wasnot doubled. ThoughYorkshire had a lead of 43 runs on the first hands, they lost their advantage whenthey went in again , and Wainwright, whowasthe highest scorer with 37 and 27, alone got over twenty runs . Middlesex went in on Friday night with 134 to win, and whenrain stopped the game22 of them hadbeen madefor the loss of Mr. Stoddart's wicket . In the absence of any chance of play on the third day, the gamewas drawn. In the second innings of Yorkshire , LordHawkehit one ball from Burton out of the ground for six .
