HOME CRICKET CHATTER

Warning To Lancashire

Old Trafford in the news again! The latest bit of excitement there centres round Duckworth and Hop- wood, who were omitted from the Notta match, writes a Home cor- respondent.

The Duckworth case was a gen- uine surprise, but that of Hopwood was not. for a place had to be found for Oldfield when fit again. Rhodes had been invited for three games, and Lancashire with Iddon

also available do not require three left-arm slow bowlers."

Moreover.

I still think Farrt- mond should be in the side regu- larly, if not as wicket-keeper then as à middle division batsman and slip fields.nan.

"

Lancashire are missing too many catches in the last named positions. and it is time something was done about it.

"

The omission of Duckworth caus- ed so much controversy that the General Committee of the Lan- cashire Cricket Club Issued the fol- lowing statement: ·

The selection of the team for each county match is in the discretion of the Match " Selection Committee. In whose judgment the General Com- mittee have complete confidence 'The decision to play Farri- mond in the Notts match was a unanimous one arrived at by the Selection Committee. and is no reflection on Duck- worth nor disparagement of him."

1."

I. for one, do not envy the Old Trafford authorities their job. There are so many promising young players on the ground staff that sooner or later they will have to be thoroughly tried out,

I

The Lancashire authorities must not leave the real try-out

of their young players until it

is too late. This is a warning which should not be ignored.

Notts Find 'Em.

Is 'not strange how Notts find wicket-keepers? They are as for- tuneta as Kent in this respect. Since Lilley played less regularly than he used to do. C. R. Maxwell has done well-enough to appear in

representative games, and as stand-by there is Wheat, who play- ed against Lancashire.

Wheat has been a member of the

ground staff a long time without having so many chances as he has 'eserved, and had he' been a mem- ber of some less prominent county he would have been a fixture. Just as is Farrimond, of Lancashire, he Is a capital understudy for any county to have, even though he is not so young as he might be, He passed his 39th birthday in May.

Middlesex Talent

An interesting fact regarding the Middlesex team is that in the ab- sence of Robins, at Kettering, they were skippered by W. H. Webster, the old Cambridge soccer Blue and English International, and he made a good score.

Middlesex seem to be able to maintain their wealth of amateur

talent. and they must be very happy to be able to claim the ser- 'vices of the old South African Test cricketer and England Rugby full | back, H. . Owen-Smith. He is just as fine a "live wire" in cricket as in football
