Lord Hawke's 1891 Tour

Page history last edited by Patrick Adams 14 years, 7 months ago

Lord Hawke's XI played two games in Canada, following earlier games in Boston and Chicago.

 

They beat Western Ontario XI by an innings and 54 runs on 20-21 October 1891:

They beat Eastern Ontario XI by an innings and 84 runs on 23-24 October 1891:

The international player MG Bristowe top scored opening both Ontarian innings with 35 and 47 not out, in total scores of 106 and 90 respectively. BTA Bell hit 10 and 11. Only one other double figure score was made.

 

Although they were comprehensively outplayed, at least the Canadians competed on level terms. Perhaps a combined Ontario team could have done better.
