GRIMMETT THE DEMON

WORRIED WORCESTERS! 11 RECOT FIVE FOR 46 RUNS THE BOWLING AVERAGES (Aust. and N.Z. Cable) (Received May 3, 11.50 a.m.) London, May 3. For the second innings of the Worcester team the bowling averages were: Wall o for 22, Fairfaxo for 45, Grimmett 5 for 46, Hornibrook 3 for 30, A’Beckett o for 25, McCabe o for 8. An hour and a quarter was sufficient time in which to dismiss the remaining Worcester batsmen (as re ported on page 6). Grimmett was the destroying angel. He tied all the batsmen up and finished with fine figures. The other Australian bowlers innocuous, although Fairfax made the ball get up. The Root and Walters partnership was worth S 4 runs, but when Giimmett was called on he immediately bowled Root and the others failed to last long. The Worcester innings occupied 240 minutes. Grimmctt’s bowling in this match has deepened the feeling that the Australian attack might be a one man show. Hornibrook is 4 improving, but Wall and A’Bcckett were never impressive and failed to get a wicket
