Croom, whc was playing with the utmost confidence, was hope- lessly beaten by Smith's pace of the pitch, and was leg-before- wicket. and Cranmer, promoting himself in the batting order, came

in to face the crisis.

By attacking the bowling Cran- mer not only averted the danger of a threatened batting collapse. but he also saved Warwickshire
