Slow Scoring A SPLIT SECOND MORE AND HE'S OUT!

Is Killing Cricket

Says PETER DITTON

London.

The recent rumpus at Trent Bridge, during which Reg Simpson, the Notts captain, bowled an over of under-arm lobs to Wilf Wooller, the Glamorgan skipper, turned the spot. light most effectively on опе of the unsavoury aspects of cricket.

Nothing is calculated to be more boring than a team scoring at the rate of 35 runs an hour throughout the first day of a match on a batsman's wicket. Yet that was the rate Glamor- gan were achieving when Simpson took a hand in the proceedings, and became in- cidentally the first English- man since 1938 to bowl un- derarm in first-class cricket in this country.

ct

Simpson afterwards declared that the Glamorgan rate scoring was too slow on an easy pitch and that none of the batsmen with the exerpilan of veteran opener, Emrys Davies, tried to play any forcing shots.

EABY PACED WICKET ·

The reply by Wooller Was that the wicket was so easy paced that the ball did not come through quickly enough for his batsmen to make strokes.

And

on top of this Notts bowled de- fensively to a defensive field which meant that the batsmen had to take risks if they wanted to step up the rate of scoring.

Wooller further pointed ou: Fthat the Trent Bridge wicket has such a reputation for big totals that unless rain inter- feres, the matches usually wind up, in a fight for first innings points.

In these circumstances he did not ste that: Glamorgan were wrong in scoring as they did.
