  • Short Summary

    A flashback look at the 1905 test match after seeing the Second Test of the 1930 series.

  • Description

    Issue book reads: "Lords. The Second Test. Glorious weather - thrilling cricket and K. S. Duleepsinhiji record breaking 173 - thrills record crowd."

    This section of the item is in the Cricket reels held separately.

    Intertitle reads: "Let us - as only the Pathe Gazette can - take you back to Lords - 25 years ago - and the test match of 1905 ..."

    Lords Cricket Ground, Middlesex.

    Various shots of batsmen at the crease in 1905. Shots of men and women in the crowd.

    Second intertitle missing - issue book suggests it should read:
    "and 'conjure up' such famous cricket giants as: J. Darling, N. A. Noble, Clem Hill, Victor Trumper, W. W. Armstrong - luncheon interval 25 years ago - and today."

    This may help to identify the players we see.

    Sound Track Missing.

    Note: old records also mention another cricketer J J Kelly.
