'. e\- rKLEfin * prr—press association. » CHRISTCHURCH, May 6. : In reference to the cablegram stating that New Zealand had extended an invitation to a Marylebone team to tour New Zealand next season, the secretary of the New Zealand Cricket Coun r cil states there appears to be some misunderstanding in the matter. He explains that when, it was found it was too late to complete arrangements with ' Marylebone for sending a team to New ' Zealand during 1920-21 the New Zea- | land Cricket Council wrote and stated ' the matter woiild be reconsidered for next season. The New Zealand Coun- | cil now has the matter under considera_ ' tion and expects at an early date to ask the opinion of the various associations throughout New Zealand before committing itself to such a tour1 by a Marylebone team. j
