Exciting Cricket: Exciting Finishes In
County
Surrey Set Hot Pace
London, July 11.
Surrey are setting such a hot pace in the County cricket cham- plonship that they now have a clear lead of 32 points over their nearest rivals, Middlesex, in the table. ́.
Surrey have a brilliant all-round side and it appears that only the calls of Test and representative matches can prevent them from gaining their first outright championship win since 1914. They shared the title with Lancashire in 1950..
Surrey beat Worcestershire in two days yesterday to score their 12th victory in 15 matches so far played, the other three games being drawns.
They now have 152 points hour of this time and the match |
