A most useful bowler , fast right ; on his day destructive , having natural break back, and a dangerous yorker . A vigorous batsman, with commandingreach and great driving powers. Cricketer all over . C. F. Stanger - Leathes : The safest bat in the team. Has strong defence , and more punishing capacity than last year, though still rather gentle ; ought to develop into a first -class performer . A bit slow in the field , but pretty safe whenhegets there . *A. J. Crawford : Dis- charged his difficult duties as deputy-captain most conscientiously . A s a batsmanhas not met with the success he deserves , but greatly improved in wicket-keeping. Goodfield anywhere, and change bowler. *H. E. Stanger- Leathes : Hasbeen the mainstay of the bowling department , and done a lot of hard workwith considerable success . Not a scientific bat, but a resolute smiter . *I. G. Winch : Amuchimproved bat, especially in defence . Hits very hard and clean to square leg , but rather too apt to try it on with straight ones . Bowlsslow right , with considerable effect at times . Excellent field . H. C. Pinckney : Apainstaking , promising cricketer . Steady and rapidly improving
