FOURTH TEST.
CLEM HILL’S PREDICTION. (United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph Copyright.) (Australian Press Association.) Received 1.50 p.m. to-day. LONDON, Jan. 30. Clem Hill, in a cable to the “Daily Telegraph,” states: “If Australia wins the toss and' rain does not intervene she should have a good chance of winning. If England wins the toss the odds will greatly favour her. She will have an avantage in running between the wickets and more knowledge of the finer points of test cricket. Jackson is going to keep his position as opening batsman for some years, especially if Woodfull is at the other end. The choice of Andrews as twelfth man when Richardson is on the spot is beyond me. Chapman and Richardson have proved the‘most outstanding fieldsmen throughout the tests. Oxenham has done nothing to warrant his reinelusion. Our batting is good and sound, but our bowling is not strong.”
