M.C.C. TEAM
STRAIN OF AUSTRALIAN TOUR. Preis Association—By Telegraph —Copyright LONDON, March 7. (Received March S, at 1.40 p.m.) “ft will not ho surprising,” says the ‘Morning Post,’ editorially, “if Australia beats Chapman’s band of brothers. This team is not as strong as it was owing to the wear and tear of the long journeys in sub-tropical weather and the nervous strain of six-day matches. A season’s cricket in Australia for Englishmen who are exiles from their green and comfortable playing fields is always a war of attrition. Let ns hope that the final test will not be marred by outrageous- barracking. It is to bo hoped that this nuisance will he, vigorously suppressed by the sporting majority.”—Australian Press Association.
