RETURN MATCH
England v. New South Wales KIPPAX WINS TOSS Wickets Fall Very Cheaply BRILLIANT YOUNG BAT (By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright.) (Received Jan. 26, 9.15 p.m.) Sydney, Jan. 26. England’s return match against New South Wales commenced today in hot summer weather. The wicket favoured the batsmen. New South Wales batted first, and had five wickets down for 169 when stumps were drawn. The teams are as follow: — England: Wyatt (captain), l»ataudi, Ames, Leyland, Brown, Hammond, Mitchell, Verity, Tate, Bowes, and Duckworth, with Larwood as twelfth man. New South Wales: Kippax (captain), Bradman, Brown, Fingleton, Hill, Howell, Stewart, Cummins, Rowe, Chilvers, and Love, with Bennett ' as twelfth man. Fingleton and the 19-year-old Brown gave New South Wales a good start, scoring 58 before the former was bowled around his legs. He was uncertain throughout, being dropped when at 5 off Tate. Brown was also dropped when 5 off Bowes. Bradman replaced Fingleton and swung wildly at the few balls he received until bowled by a good-length delivery. Kippax was caught at silly leg off a bumper from Bowes, and the backbone of the New South Wales side was back in the pavilion by lunch time with only 67 on the board. Mitchell had an average of two for 10 at lunch, and improved this to three for 12 when in his first over after the adjournment he completely beat Cummins. The position was desperate when, the left-hander Rowe, aged 16, partnered Brown. Rowe, who is playing his first representative game, raced to 40 in even time. Fifty for the partnership, of which Rowe contributed 37, took only thirtysix minutes. Rowe glanced and cut with precision, and did not hesitate to lift the ball into the unguarded outfield. He reached 50 in forty minutes. He was particularly severe on Tate. Brown meanwhile was batting more confidently. His 50 occupied 125 minutes. The total was four wickets for 160 at 3.20 when a thunderstorm stopped Play. Play was resumed at 4.43 p.m. The tea adjournment was taken at 4 o’clock and the players took the field at 4.15, but before a ball had been bowled rain drove them off for half an hour. Play was resumed in a bad light. Brown was caught in the slips without adding to his score. He had given a solid display, and with Rowe retrieved the position for New South Wales. Love immediately appealed successfully against the light, and later it was announced that stumps would be drawn. The attendance was 23,238 and the takings £1651 sterling. Following are the scores: — NEW SOUTH WALES. First Innings. Fingleton, b. Mitchell 19 Brown, c. Ames. b. Bowes w Bradman, b. Mitchell J Kippax, c. Mitchell, b. Bowes 3 Cummins, b.
