AFTER THE TEST
FUTILITY OF DRAWS
OPINIONS OF CRITICS
LONDON, June 29.
The Australian Associated Pre§s says the fact that England might have won the -first and second Tests if five days had been allocated does not alter tHe Australian objection to the futility of draws. . , R. E. S. Wyatt, in the "Daily Mail,' says the Test-again proved that the batting is too strong on both sides to enable a finish in four days. "The Times" says England can console themselves that .they had the better of the game. They lost whatever chance of winning they had by over-indulgence in bowling on the leg stump, which was welcomed by the Australians.
