CRICKET ROUT.

FAILURE OF INDIANS.

English Fast Bowlers Make

Ball Bump Badly.

HEADLEY OUT CHEAPLY TWICE lUnited I'.A.—Electric Telegraph—Copyright) (Received "ll a.m.) LONDON, August 14. When the final cricket Test between England—who scored 312 on Saturday—and West Indies was resumed .to-day at the Oval a crowd of 12,000 saw the West Indians utterly collapse on a wicket apparently "tricky" from overnight" dampness.

Claik and Nichols made the ball bump awkwardly. Headley was struck four times on the body. Barrow was also hit on the arm.

Clark secured the first throe wickets, two as the result of catches at forward short-leg by Bakewell, who stood almost at the end of the bat.

Marriott, whose peculiar mediumpaced delivery conceals his break cleverly, accounted for Headley, and the tail-enders showed no capacity to- deal with him. The Indians were out in under two hours. Following on. Roach and Barrow scored rapidly off the fast bowlers. The first wicket fell at 77, but when Headley. again failed to get going the bowlers had the upper hand. At one stage only eight runs were added in half an hour. When stumps "were drawn 22 runs were needed to save an innings' defeat. Scores: — ENGLAND. First innings 312 WEST INDIES—First Innings. .
