Almost ever nincc cricket became a serious pastime and batting a havo fine art, certain exponents been renowned as essentially first- wicket batsmen players o spicuously intended to apen the but- ting that it would appear almost an outrage to place them other- where in the order of going in. With Dr. W. G. Grace facile princeps as usual, the list is a very big one. Most prominent among first wicket names are A. Shewa- bury, G. Ulyett, A. E. Stoddart, R. Abel, T. Hayward, C. B. Fry, J.; Ving. L. C. H. Palairet, A. ... Maclaren, A. O. Jones, fremoriger, J. T. Brown, J. Tunnicliffe, P. E. Warner, H. T. Hewett, Hobbs, Sandham, Hadlows, and Holmes and Sutcliffe, who have now broken all records.
Of opening pairs in overseas Victor cricket the incomparable Trumper (with R. A. Duff) must inevitably be placed first. Earlier than they, H. H. Massie and A Bannerman, McDonnell and J. J. Lyons, G. Troti and Bruce, and J. J. Lyons, G. Trott and Bruce. and subsequently Bardsley
and Macurtney, have been starting couples terribly hard to dispose of. Since their day, Hobbs-Satcliffe partnerships have swamped every. thing.
