SUBURBAN ASSOCIATION.

TO-MORROW'S GAMES.

Cox, of Susses, will make his first appearance as a playing member of the Green. Lane side. That team, as it happens, is in rather bad case in its match against Glen Eden, who made 271, having been dismissed in tlie first innings for 75 and following on to lose one wicket for 11. In the PonsonbyEllerslie game the former made 188, and Ellerslie has lost nine wickets for 103.

TEST MATCH STATUS. 1 NEXT N.Z. TEAM FOR ENGLAND. (By Telegraph.—Special to "Star.") DUNEDIN, this day. Like the other English cricket coaches to arrive in New Zealand, L. C. Eastman, the Otaga coach, is confident that England will win the rubber. When asked whether he thought that the next New Zealand team which went Home would obtain Test match status, Eastman said he felt sure that it would. The team which had toured England had played good sporting cricket, and at the end of the tour had demonstrated that it was a good side.

The English public did not forget, and consequently the next tour would be more successful financially. If New Zealand sent a team Home every four years the two countries would not lose touch with each other. Referring to the proposed visit of an English team to New Zealand, Eastman said he was sure the next team would be composed of really good players.
