CRICKET
THE AUSTRALIANS IN ENGLAND London, Ju’y 7. The cricket match Australians v. Middlesex was resumed to-day at Lord’s ground. The weather was again showery during the day, and the attendance was consequently only moderate. The Australians with three wickets down for 60 runs, went in for their first innings, Horan and Murdoch resuming their places at the wickets. Both men batted splendidly and remained together for some time. Murdoch was atlongth for 52, having played a splendid innings. Horan played very steadily, and carried out his hat for 38. The Middlesex Eleven being 32 behind their opponents, went in for their second innings, but faded to make any stand against the splendid howling of Garratt, Palmer, and Spofforth, and the innings closed for 91. The Australians requiring 60 runs to win, went in for their second innings, and obtained one beyond the number wanted for the lo°s of on y two wickets. The Australians thus won the match by eight wickets.
