CRICKET.

U. C. C. C. v. c. c. c. This match was continued on Saturday last, and brought to a very unexpected corclusion. On the previous Saturday the U.C.C.C. made 157 in their first inning ß ) and the C.C.C. had lost two wickets for 39 runs, and thus far the match appeared very equal. Messrs Beard and Alpe were the not-outs, with 7 and 15 respectively. At about 230 p.m. the U.C.C.C. again took the field, and Messrs Beard and Monck appeared at the wickets, Aipe being ill and unable to play. Beard was bowled by T. R. Moore when one run had been added to,the total—four for 40. Dixon filled the vacancy, but only remained while Monck added 3—five for 44. D'Emden ran himself out with the score at 48. Monck was soon afterwards splendidly caught by 11. W. Moore at long-on—seven for 53. Turner was bowled by Fuller when three more runs had been added, and Fowler was clean bowled by T. R. Moore after scoring 7-nine for 61 ; and the innings was brought to a conclusion by bowling Chalmers, Stuart being not out—ten for 63, or 94 to the bad. This necessitated a follow-on, and the second was scarcely more fortunate than the first,for, with the exception of Dixon, who hit freely, none of the others obtained double figuris. Dixon made 28, by one 4, two 3's, five 2's, and singles. He was rather lucky, and some of his hits were not made in the most orthodox fashon, the prevailing idea with him being to hit every ball to leg. Turner made 9, which included an on drive for 7. This should not have been more than 4, but the ball went into the long grass at the edge of the ground, and the fieldsman did not watch it carefully. The innings, which was not very eventful, closed for 73. The U.C.C.C. therefore won most unexpectedly, by an innings and 21 runs. Such is the uncertainty of cricket. The wickets fell a.* follows :—One for 0, two for 6, three for 17, four for 24, five for 38, six for 41, seven for 55, eight for 66, nine for 73. Alpe being unable to play, the C.C.C. played one man short last Saturday. During the afternoon the U.C.C.C. fielded very well, with one or two exceptions. We were especially pleased with the fielding of H. W. Moore. With him there was no delay in returning the ball when in hand, and if our other players would only try to do the same it would be a great improvement. The following is the score:— u.c.c c.
