THE CHINA MAIL.
COUNTY CRICKET,
CLOSE RACE FOR LEADERSHIP.
All of the six, county matches down for decision at Home for the second part of this week were completed and little surprise was occasioned by the results. In every instance the county expected to win accounted for the smaller fry.
Outside of the two hat-trick" performances in the Oval match and Sutcliffe's big score, there is the interest in the county table. By beating Essex, Yorkshire, the present champions, share first place with Middlesex Instead of occupying secund position. Lancashire (third) and Surrey (fourth) both won and they creep nearer still, Somerset's victory gives them fifth place with Sussex,
It seems that there is to be a rare tussle for the championship this season and that Yorkshire will not have things entirely their own way as they did last season.
יי
To-day England and South Africa meet in the Third Test Match at Leeds. At the Oval Surrey entertain Lancashire' and Middlesex travel to Trent Bridge to play Notts. Kent will have Yorkshire.as visitors at Maidstone. With the prospect of some of the county teams being depleted because of the Test Match some surprising results may come through on Wednesday next.
