Drying Pitches Have Batsmen In Trouble In County Cricket
London, July 7,
Drying pitches Had batsmen in trouble in midst of the English County Cham- plonship cricket matches beginning today. A total of 85 wickets fell in seven games. Heading the bowlers' parade was Surrey and England left-arm spinner Tony Lock with eight for 36′ against Glamorgan. Loclé made the ball turn viciously and the Welshmen were bundled out for 95. The wicket was still difficult when Surrey batted, but they passed the Glamorgan score with four wickets in hand, thanks mainly to bold hitting by wicketkeeper McIntyre.
