ENGLAND'S TASK.
MUST AMASS HUGE SCORE. (Received 12 noon.) LONDON, November 30. "The Times" cricket -writer declares that optimism in England is -wellfounded on recent successes, but to under-rate the strength and virility of the Australians -would be to ignore the history of the Australian team. Definitely the strong law of averages insists that Woodfull and Bradman must make runs soon. "Sporting Life" says: "It is realised that England must amass a huge total on the perfect wicket at Sydney in order to make sure of victory in the first Test match there on Friday. Brilliant batsmen like Woodfull and Bradman cannot continue failing for ever." Mr. A. D. Taylor, writing in the "Morning Post," says: "The first Test match should resolve itself into a battle between England's fast bowlers and Australia's spin bowlers."
