CRICKET.
AUSTRALIANS AT HOME
PRACTICE RESUMED
BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT. LONDON, April 26. The rain having ceased, the Australians were enabled to recommence practice at Lord’s. Two matting wickets were available. The team, except Collins, Oldfield and Grimmett, were busy under Bardsley’s guidance. Collins and Grimmett are fit again, hut the day was too dull and chilly to tempt them to don flannels. Gregory and Everett were much faster on the matting than they were on the soft turf last week, but neither attempted extreme pace. Mailev. Macartney and Richardson made the ball turn a lot, but all were apt to pitch short. Gregory went in for big hitting. Taylor displayed his usual sound methods, but Everett’s pace got through his defence occasionally..—A. and N.Z. Assn.
