CRICKET.
by telegraph—press association. LONDON, June 26. In the County cricket match Gloucester versus Sussex, Gilbert Jessop made 164 ii\ two hours. He knocked oft' twenty-two in one over. Jessop was twelfth in the English batting averages last season. TRIANGULAR MATCHES. MR ABE BAILEY STILL HOPEFUL. Received Juna 29, 1.45 a.m. LONDON, June 28. Mr Abe Bailey, interviewed, said he was still hopeful that the triangular cricket matches would eventuate next year. Until a final decision was made it would be futile to discuss the possibility of Sauth African cricketers visiting Australia. The attitude of the Australians in pressing for a visit next year, and not desiring an Imperial contest appeared exceedingly inconsistent.
