About M.E. myself and I

Eastbourne, East Sussex, United Kingdom
I have been an M.E. sufferer for a long time now, but sports replay gaming is an easy hobby for me to enjoy. Originally from Canvey Island, Essex, I was introduced to replay gaming a few years ago, leading to my first purchase: Cricket World. Most sports I share will be common, but there are some more obscure replays thrown in. Thank you for visiting and I hope you enjoy your stay. Feel free to say hello! - Chris

CW 1899/00 (S8), Game 4: Victoria vs South Australia

Victoria 10/11 vs South Australia 10/8

Melbourne Cricket Ground

30th December 1899, 1st-5th January 1900

Lineups:
Victoria - J Worrall, TS Warne, H Graham, SA McMichael, FJ Laver, JH Stuckey, PA McAlister, H Trumble, CH Ross, JV Saunders, FB Collins



South Australia - JC Reedman, FT Hack, C Hill, J Darling, A Jarvis, EH Kekwick, G Giffen, WP Stuart, AH Jarvis, E Jones, JPF Travers


First Innings


It was a one-man show for Victoria as FJ Laver entered with the score 164-4, and would not leave. But would Victoria's declaration be a poor choice on the second day?


VIC 509-7 dec


FJ Laver 231*; SA McMichael 69; PA McAlister 61; H Trumble 52
JPF Travers 4-130


A brave attempt by South Australia saw them pass the 450-mark, but a lack of stability in the middle order was the difference in getting closer.


VIC 509-7 dec
SA 454


G Giffen 155; FT Hack 101; WP Stuart 75
JV Saunders 4-102; FJ Laver 3-100


Second Innings


A dominating start soon petered out to give South Australia a chance on an increasingly degraded pitch.


VIC 509-7 dec + 381
SA 454


J Worrall 92; PA McAlister 83; H Graham 56; JH Stuckey 53
A Jarvis 4068; JC Reedman 3-78


This time, the openers were the ones who failed to get out of the gate as South Australia come oh so close to winning the match.


VIC 509-7 dec + 381
SA 454 + 422


G Giffen 104; C Hill 69; WP Stuart 63; E Jones 54*; A Jarvis 54
H Trumble 5-110; FJ Laver 3-89


Victoria wins by 14 runs
