Owing to the rain the match could not be resumed this morning. The Pall Mall Gazette considers the Australian team little, if any, inferior to that of IHB2, which has hitherto been regarded as the best eleven that visited England. It is equal to England in bowling, and some wonderful dashing and safe batting has been shown. The batting is steady and even, and probably the soundest of any team that has yet visited the Old Country. The Marylebone Club is asking the Counties whether they think the follow on rule should be altered by making a following on optional at the discretion of the side which is leading, or by abolishing the practice altogether.
