Brown’s Fitness Main Problem
(N.Z. Press Association—Copyright)
SYDNEY. The M.C.C.’s main problem now is to get the fast bowler, David Brown, fit for the second teat, which begins in Melbourne on December 30. Brown, after bowling 21 overs in the Brisbane test, had a recurrence of the injury—a torn stomach muscle—he had suffered when playing against New South Wales. Before the second test
he will have a week more than he had between the New South Wales match and the first test to get fit again. Brown, after the present visit to Canberra, will fly to Adelaide and will have special treatment there. He was the spearhead of the attack in the Brisbane test, with his two wickets in one over, including the bowling of Peter Burge for a “duck.”
