The match was drawn. ENGLISH TEST TEAM. LONDON, August 12. ' The “News Chronicle” learns, on the best authority, Chapman will not only not be captaining England in the fifth Test match, but is unlikely even to have a place in the team, and that Wyatt, the Warwickshire captain, is likely to be substituted. Hobbs has expressed a strong disinclination to accept the captaincy himself.
