* ; THE AUSTRALIANS. ! DRAW WITH DERBYSHIRE, A BOWLERS" MATCH. Bγ Telcsranh-Press Association—Copyright (Roc. August 4, 5.5 p.m.) London, August 3. Sunshine on Friday made (lie wicket tricky for tho continuation of the match Australia i\\ Derbyshire. Tho attendance on that day numbered 1500. Matthews (12) and Kclleway (20) continued their stand, adding 30 more hefore they were separated. The next three wickets added nothing. Then Emery and Whitty made a stand for the ninth wicket, adding 15. Emery and Webster put on 22 for (ho last wicket. Kclleway batted 137 minutes for his ' 37—a. faultless innings. Matthews was 1 strong on tho leg-side, and Emery drove ' hard, hitting four 4's and, a 3 off con--1 EOCiitive bnUs (off Forester). The century 1 was posted after 115 minutes' play, tho innings lasting 105 minutes. 1 Derbyshire made but a poor stand, ' Matthews proving very destructive. Mor- ' ton alone made any showing. He batted 100 minutes for 32. Humphries gave a 1 fair display. The innings lasted 130 ■ minutes. Australia had lost five wickets at tho closo of the day. ■ On resuming play on Saturday the five ' remaining Australian wickets were dis- ' po;ed of by lunch. They added 75 run;. ' Webster accounted for J9 runs, Smith added seven to his overnight scoro of 2, i whilo Bardsley brought up his contribution to 59. Emery, following Smith, was dismissed first ball. Bardsley showed excellent strokes all round the wiekefc and made steady headway, while Whitty and Hazlitfc were content with three each. After 135 minutes play tho ninth wicket had fallen before the century appeared. Webster was sound. He batted fifty minutes. Bardsiey gave a hard chance at ; 22 to mid-off, and the next ball he drove back and was almost caught by Morton. Tho latter and Forester shared the bowling honours. The whole innings occu- ' pied 175 minutes. Derbyshire started their focond innings ' on a treacherous wicket, but it became easier after tea. Morton alone was ablo 1 to make any headway against the bowling. 1 He batted 75 minutes and showed good 1 sound cricket, though he gave a chance 3 when ho was 13 to Whitty off Hazlitt. 1 Whitty and Matthews made a most difficult pair tf bowlers.
