"CRICKET AND SELF.

The Case of Jack Hobba.

Mr. Justice Rowlatt's'assertion that the object of the modern batsman is not to play in order that his side way, win but for the Bake of his averago has led quite a company of our leading cricketors to express themselves strongly against any such charge of selfishness and bad sportsman- ship, writos "Cantab" in an exchange. Mr. C. T. Bonnott, tho captain of this year's Cambridge eleven, declares that he is quite unable to agree with Mr. Rowlatt. “Hobbs," he says, Dis. typical of / the man who cares nothing forg his average. After he had made' 104 against us the other day he | simply throw his wiokot away. I | know many other first class pro- fessionals, such as Roy Kilner, who do the same. They are the most sporting set of mon in the world."

Such a reply from go prominent a sportenun as Mr. Bonnalt is enough to refute any such charge as the one made by Mr. Justica Rowlatt. We were present at the Oval on the occasion to which the Cambridge Captain refers. Hobbs had made a brilliant century-his- one hundred and twontieth- against some accurate bowling by Meyer, Jagger, and Enthoven. No sooner had he dona'so than he run a couple of yards out of his crease and hit Enthoven to the boundary. In trying to treat the. next ball in the same way ho mis- sed it and was stumped. A more sporting innings one novor wishes to see. But there is only one. Hobbe. What of the ordinary overy-day professional cricketer? To what extent is he guilty of "poking away so as not to be out, and to increase his average?" The reply to this question is easy enough. There is guch

It is not always possible even,

batsman as Hobbs to make runs at a great paco, but few will be inclined to accuse Hobbs or any other really good batsman of playing more for, himself than for his side and more' for his own individual average than for the benefit of his team.

The opinions of several other well-known cricketers on this sub. fect are worth quoting. They have all appeared in the Press s'nce Mr. Justice Rowlatt threw out bis challenge to the sports- manship of our modern batsmen. The Yorkabiro batsmen Holmes and Sutcliffe who continue to pile up their huge first wicket scores do so for Yorkshire and not prim- marily for their own benefit. Holmos saya-I play for my side and the average does not worry me." Sutcliffe says. The mod. ern professional plays for his side quite as much as the profes- sional of the old days. There is no playing for averages in the Yorkshire team.", Mr. A. W. Carr, who captains the Notts team, delivers his side from that

in batting which in the old daya Was sometimes made against them, and not always without some justification. "Of course," writes Mr. Carr, you can pick out an odd man here. and there against whom such a charge could be made, but these are an insignificant number and in no sense representativo. of cricketors in general. There is no player of the kind in my. aido. "

The only charge that can re- asonably be brought against our leading cricketers is that they. are as a rulo unable to beat the Australians This charge is serious one which fow of thom will be inclined to deny. But "to charge them with what amounts to bad sportsmanship and failure. to play the game is quito another mattor, and one in which fow, of those who know them and their methods will be willing to concur.
