DERBYSHIRE'S OVERWHELMING DEFEAT Press Association—By Telegraph—-Copyright. LONDON, August 16. (Deceived August 17, at 11.50 a.m.) The ‘Evening Standard' says: “Thu New Zealanders’ success against Derbyshire should settle the question whether the team lias come up to expectations. ]twas pointed out that Sussex did not play Tate and Worcester did wot play Root, and therefore grumblers requested the Marylebone Club to suggest to the counties the fairness of selecting the strongest sides, but the Marylebone Club did not listen to the suggestion. It is impossible to disparage the overwhelming defeat of Derbyshire, which is at present one of the best county sides. Its position in the championship contest is also an outstanding feature of the season.”
[Tho Notv Zealanders were to eouimonco a three days’ match against Lancashire to-day.]
