CRICKET.
NOT PLAYING THE GAME
HOW YORKSHIRE WINS
By CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT.
(Received Aug. 29, 9.15 a.m.) LONDON, Aug. 28. The Daily Mail says that following an enquiry into certain happenings when Yorkshire was playing Middlesex, resulting in Yorkshire’s apology, Surrey is lodging a complaint against incidents in the Leeds match, asserting that Yorkshire did not play the game. Yorkshire’s conduct has long been common talk in every county pavilion. Of numerous allegations the first, is that Yorkshire bowlers endeavoured to cut up the pitch at one end with a view to helping the bowler at the other end. Secondly, that Yorkshire players near the wicket deliberately set themselves to talk out the batsmen by passing comments at psychological moments. The Surrey committee is considering the protests.—Sydney Sun Cables.
