FOUR KNOCKS

ENGLAND LEADER'S RAPID SCORING (By Thomas Moult)

I'

London, August 13. SWIFT turn of Fortune's wheel has robbed Hampshire of the championship chance they seemed to have only a week ago, and yester- day they found themselves in an inferior posi- tion for the third match in succession. They had to field the livelong day at Lord's, and when stumps were drawn Middlesex were 382 for nine wickets.

An exhilarating knock by Hendren coloured the innings richly. This wonderful batsman, now in his 47th year, has made 408 runs in his last four innings, and he was so invincible that his share of the runs during the hours he was at the crease was 91 out of 155-and, he said to me ruefully afterwards, “I was oût to the first hall I missed"

Few except Hendren mastered the Hampshire bowling. Boyes was especially difficult to play, although the pitch had no response and he relied on length, flight and the help that poor light offered him. Only 83 were scored before lunch →→ that is, in two hours-less ten minutes, when the gloom caused a suspen- sion and Webster and Compton were out at 31 and 54, both through Boyes, assisted, in Webster's case, by a smart running catch near short leg.

Hendren and Hart, and, after the careful Hart was magni- ficently caught, Hendren and Hulme, scored so much more readily that the total was in- creased by 185 before tea. Hulme has a resounding thwack! in his bat, but he did only a minor part in helping to put on. 88 for the fourth wicket

Hendren was stumped at: 209.
