COMMENT ON THE FIRST DAY'S PLAY.
SYDNEY. February 18. The "Herald," commenting on the test match, says that the fielding of the Springboks, on the whole, was poor. Considering th© nature of the wicket, the South Africans' attack was not at all deadly. It looks already aa if tho Australians will win the match and the rubber. Bardsley has completed a thousand runs for the season. The "Telegraph" remarks that many chances were missed by the South Africans. Their bowling was not troublesome, Vogler being the worst offender. It would be flattery to say that he sent down one good ball.
