BOWLING
THE NEW ZEALANDERS IN AUS-
TRALIA
PRESS CXJfMMENT
United Prose Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. SYDNEY, April 27. The "Sydney Morning Herald" says that tho New Zealand team certainly had a remarkable tour throughout Australia. «und it is generally admitted that tho play of the visitors has been of a very fine order.
The "Daily Telegraph" declares that never in the annals of the pastime of bowling was there so much interest centred in a match: os in that of Saturday. The Now Zealanders' splendid run of scoring seemed to be checked when they reached the sixteenth end, and, strange to say, that was the point where the green became heavier as the sun went off it. The visitors did not realise this faotor, and were playing short. The succees of the New Zealanders was due to the fine concerted play of the team. Special praise is due to Bishop's rink aad Goldstone's rink, with a special word for Waddell's rink, which Trimming's team downed, and also for Waxmon's Victorian four.
