AUSTRALIA v. MANAWATU.

mi mi " says m tlle Standard: Ihe team to represent Manawatu :s tho best combination we have had here for years. Nearly every member can bowl, and as it is country cricket 1 think it will be found that P.;ihnerston and Feilding have nothing to be aslia.ined of. Palmerston provides eight and Feilding Jive of the representatives. There are three or four excellent break .bowlers, and two fast swerve bowlers, to say nothing of fast to medium-paced men. The team lacks a slow Job-bowler, one of those patient players most useful in breaking up -partnerships. Tho batting perhaps is weak, but is above the average found in country cricket as has been proved in matches played by local representatives against Wnnsanui, Wairarapa and Horowhenua. I am sure that if the members of our team can forget the fact that they are playing famous cricketers they will show up very favourably. 4-t^T^™ l^ 1 a # ain remind cricketers that the Star i.s a daily paper, and we do not want to publish on Tuesdaas. reports of cricket nmfceb.es that take place on Saturday.
