Another Surrey match kept the Heads away, and Mr Alfred Lyttelton could not find time to play, hut nevertheless the teams were wonderfully strong. We must, however, express an opinion that Alfred Shaw, on the form he had been showing, should have had a place in the Players’ Eleven. The wicket was in splendid condition, and in all 1,098 runs were scored for 33 wickets. Hie Gentlemen lost 7 wickets on the first day for 4,09, and finished their innings at a quarter past twelve on the. Tuesday. This was their third tnt-U of over 400 at Lord’s within nine years. Their batting was exceptionally fine. Mr. Lucas and Mr. C T. Studd showed admirable defence when the bmviuig was at its best, but the special feature of the innings was the lutting of Mr. Tylecote, who made 107 out of 191 scored while he was in, and was only at the wickets for two hours and a half. To make 100 in a Gentlemen and Players match at Lord s is a batsman’s crowning distinction, and Mr. Tylecote was warmly congratulated. It was a disheartening thing to go m against a total of 441. and for the magnificent up-hill game that they played the professionals deserve unstinted praise. They might have won half-a-dozen ordinary matches X thoui doing themselves equal credit. The chief honours, of course, Tested with Barnes and Ulyett. The former has never played better. .At l . ^ t time on .ho third day the Player, SeuteJ likely to save the match, os they were 37 to the good and had 6
