'VARSITY CRICKET AT LORD'S.
TO-DAY'S GREAT MATCH.
NOTES ON PLAYERS: BY R. ABBIT...
Today at Lord's, begins the ninety-second encounter between! Oxford and Cambridge. So far the Light Blues, who have won five, drawn four and lost two of these matches since the war, have to their credit forty-three wins, against Oxford's thirty-six, while only twelve have been drawn. At first glance in these days, the small proportion of draws may seem sur prising, but the match is a "needle onc, and sides which can rattle up three and four hundred runs against County sides with quite strong. Bowling collapse ignominiously on the historic turi of Lord's. Indeed from 1997 to 1893, seventy-one years, there were only three draws, in 1827, 1944, and 188. There were three draws running in 1599, 1900 and 1901. The remaining sit took place in 1904, 1909, 1920, 1995 and 1928. There were, of course, no games from 1915-1918 inclusive.
