CRICKET.

After a two weeks’ interval, owing to the wet weather, the Cup matches were resumed on Saturday last, under favourable circumstances. The match between Lancaster Park Eleven and Addington, which had been left in an interesting stage, was concluded, and ended in favour of the Park team by 22 runs. The MidlandLancashire Park Fifteen match has advanced another stage, and looks like furnishing a close finish. The scores now stand :— Lancaster Park: First innings 152, second innings 55 for six wickets; Midland: First innings, 132. Ashley County gained their first victory this season by defeating United. Scores : United, 85 and no; Ashley, 107 and 61 for four wickets. This is the first match Ashley have won this season, and the victory came like a shower of rain in the middle of summer to them. The Lancashire Park Junior teams are still leading for the Junior and President’s Cups.;
