THE CRICKET TEAM.
Bodyline Argument Before
Players Selected.
MAILEY CHOOSES HIS SIDE.
(Received 12 noon.) SYDNEY, this day. The choice of Australia's cricket team for England is likely to be prefaced tonight by an acrimonious discussion on the last bodyline cable dispatched by Mr. R. Oxlade, chairman of the Board of Control, which the Victorian and Queensland delegates declare was sent without their authority.
These delegates openly declare that they intend to challenge Mr. Oxladc to "a fight to a finish."
Arthur Mailey's choice of players for the English tour is:—Woodfull, Ponsford, Bromley, Darling, FleetwoodSmith, McCormick (Victoria); Kippax, Bradman, O'Reilly, McCabc, Oldfield, Fingleton, Brown (New South Wales); Walker, Wall, Grimmett (South Australia).
