For many years Dr. Grace was identified with the fortunes of Gloucestershire , whose team also included his two brothers . He was acknowledged to be the finest batsman of his time , and captained in numerous representative matches for Eng- land and the Gentlemen . Since his retirement from first - class cricket he has resided at Mot- tingham , Kent , but he still regularly takes part in Eltham's Saturday matches . 1 A remarkable performance in Saturday's cricket , says Lloyd's , was the bowling of Drake , who , in taking five wickets for six runs in three overs , brought about the single inn- ings defeat of Derbyshire , after they had been but 88 runs behind with nine wickets in hand . Drake did the " hat trick " for Yorkshire against Essex at Huddersfield in 1912 , but this is the first time that the feat of taking four The Market Place , ( LIMITED ) Place , Ross .
