FAULKNER CRITICAL
A DISAPPOINTING FOECING GAME.
(Sydney Sun Cable.)
LONDON, 7th June. G. A. Faulkner, the ex-Transvaal player, in the "Westminster Gazette," criticises the English Test trial match. He wonders "if ever poorer batting was seen in a match of such importance; The participators did not possess the knack of a big effort on a big occasion. The art of forcing the game has disappeared, and if this trial ia any proof of the best English batsmen's capabilities, I should not be surprised if the selectors are greatly dissatisfied. Fender's captaincy of The Best worried England out tor at least a hundred runs leu than they could have been considered 701111."
