The Times cricket correspondent writes that there is no likelihood of the Mar.vlebone Cricket Club adopting the eight-ball over, while in South Africa the feeling is equally averse from any alteration of tlie law at present. It is likely that the majority of experts will advise that there should be no change. The correspondent personally thinks that the adoption of the longer over in England would tend to lessen tlie pace of fast howlers, tempting them | to save themselves. | Impressive form lias been shown by A. N. White, an Australian, at Cambridge. He is bowling excellently.
