DEFEAT OF MIDDLESEX

HENDREN PASSES THE CENTURY. GOOD SCORE AGAINST AUSTRALIA. By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. London, June 6. Australia beat Middlesex by fiv® wickets. The weather was hot and the wicket was bare, although it appeared to be true, when the match was resumed this morning. Richardson again kept wickets and Oldfield' was fielding as substitute. Hendren was nearly out in th® first over, but a sixth wicket partnership of 101 by Hendren and Enthoven forced Australia to bat a second time, and five of the visitors’ wickets fell for 85. ■• • ■

Hendren, in passing Duleepsinhji’s 92, became the highest scorer ■ against th® Australians and went on to compile & century in 165 minutes, hitting 12 fours. Enthoven played very quietly until Richardson smartly caught him behind th® wicket. Richardson was unexpectedly successful as a keeper. He also dismissed Hendren. The score was then 271, the highest against the tourists to date. The remaining wickets fell quick-

ly. The Australians went in and Pon'sford scored 10 briskly, and then lost his middle stump. Bradman and Jackson moved along well until the former jumped out and his wicket was shattered. Jackson was also, badly beaten and three men were out for 59. McCabe and Richardson also went soon after reaching double figures. Then; Kippax, who is suffering from a strained groin, and Fairfax, gathered the neces*. sary runs for victory. Lee bowled finely and kept a good length. _ . : MIDDLESEX. ; First Innings 103 ; Second Innings, Lee, 1.b.w., b Hurwood 2 Stevens, st Richardson, b Grimmett 18 Hearne, 1.b.w., b McCabe ' 22 Hendren, c Richardson, b Hornibrook. l3B Allen, 1.b.w., b Hornibrook :....... 18 Haig, 1.b.w., b Grimmett 6 Enthoven, o Richardson, . b Fairfax' 38 Newman, b Grimmett ...;.. $ Canning, c Hurwood, b Hornibrook 4 : Dunston, b : Hornibrook ............ ,19 Price, not out V .
