Chronicle-1931

-8-. Barratt, (1931), Although an excellent fielder,seems to have made little progress in batting, due to lack of confidence. Should use his strength more. Peppier. (1930-31). As a batsman has many pretty strokes, notably a late cut, but is too often out before getting set. Steady bowler and good field. Bertram. (1930-31). Has been disappointing this year.Possessing a good defence and endless patience he seems to have lost his scoring strokes. Is, hovxever, far more useful than his scores indicate. A fair vxicket-keeper. Crav/ford. (1931). Has developed into the best batsman in the school, scoring particularly well on the off. Is still weak on the leg side. Promises extremely well in every department of the game. Burdon. Rapidly developing into a good,medium paced, off - break bowler. A hard hitting batsman with a very powerful cover drive. Should watch his leg strokes. 'Hopkins. Deceptive bowler with slight leg break. Keeps a length, and ought to be a good bowler later on. -E only on the off. Good field. good Coventry. Has hardly ccxne up to expectations. Cuts well,but dees not get across to the good length off ball. Fields well at point. The following have also played Hackland. A neat batsman who will score well when he grows. Very promising wicket keeper. Collins. Scores stylishly v/hen set. Bovxls a good off break, must not attempt to bowl too fast. but Aitchison.Rapidly improves as batsman and bowler.Lacks confidencej Harrington. Has all the makings of a first rate cricketer. •ii' — -■
