NOTES ON THE PLAY (By Telegraph.—Special Correspondent.) Wanganul, March 20.

As was generally expected, the Australians gained an easy win here, but there was nothing particularly interesting about the play. 1 The Australians did not show the keenness which would have characterised their efforts in a more important match, and it was apparent that they held their opponents very cheaply. On the other hand, the fielding of the Wanganui players was distinctly good, while the bowling of Holland arid: Addison was really first class,: the former especially doing good work. ■ THE NEW ZEALAND TEAM. A Auckland, March 19. Mr. Hay has chosen- the ■. following New Zealand'team for the second test match, which is to be played at Wollington on Saturday, ■ Monday, and Tuesday next:— Brice, Wellington. . Bennett, Canterbury. Boxhall, Canterbury... . ' '' Liisk, Canterbury. . Reese, Canterbury.: ■ . Sandman, Canterbury. . Sims, Canterbury. Haduen, Auckland. Hemus, Auckland. ■ Sale,' Auckland.' . . Siedeberg, Otago. - '

A LETTER OF PROTEST. 'The;, team to represent. New Zealand against Australia in the match to be playted'here on Easter.Saturday,' Monday, and Tuesday' includes' Sale, Hemus, Brice, and Sandman, in the places ol Midiane, Olliff, Howden, and M'Farlai'.-e. I There is 'a strong feeling here that Midiane, who has been' particularly successful- tliis season in club and representative 'cricket, and ' who: also''did- well against the Australians in the first test , match, should not have been" left out' of. the team. "■ " A well-known cricket authority,' writing in' this'connection, bury influence has' been at, .work :in. this . case.. Sale and Hemus would'both have been pioked in the first team had tHey been' able to.' get. leave of absence. They are both good bats 'and have been; very '• successful ' for Auckland this season. ...Why. Sandman is picked is' a' mystery.. "He',has: played in one. reprei sentative ~ matchonly and- he Jsiecure'd three ' wickets -in 'the two innings ' for l over ;150..'- runs., • Hickey,- .'; who. has. taken 'tin : Vfor . ,176. ruris. mxWellington ' representative ■ cricr; ket..this- season,-besides, having' more' t'han his share of' ohances ;: dropped;' should .have :taken ,Howden's. . place . as leg-break bowler. : It .is a;pity '-that teams'are selected in this way and that the performances of tried men are over-, looked practically because .they do not belong to Canterbury. Although : Cai-> terbury were : beaten by Wellington and Auckland they .have 'six men ,in the team and this fact alone shows where the influence lies. Brice, ' who was ' successful .against Auckland . and Canterbury,' deserves a ,plice in ■ the team, but' it' is'doubtful if ; 'he ; would have been picked had not Relf stated that in -his opinion -Brice was' the best fast bowler he had_ played against -in New ■ Zealand., Wellington players have; been very badly treated in : the selection: of : ' the* two test teams, and: 'thiswll: ,b'e 'a. iiirther "incentiye; for themto endeavour, to shift the "control of cricket'.'' from 1 '.Gwiterbuiy.Although:, the .first teia'ni was weak in bowling, this .one is still weaker, notwithstanding the inclusion' of Reese's protege (Sandmain)."
