CRICKET TESTS.
[By Electric Cable —Copyright.] Aust. and N.Z.- Cable Association.] LONDON, April 29.
A meeting 1 of the cricket test match board of control decided that if the rubber depends upon it, the last test match be played to a finish. Fixtures are being arranged between the Australians and North England on May 26, at Birmingham and against South England, at Bristol, on June 2. These probably will replace the usual trial matches. At the Australians’ request, charges for the tests will be the same as in 1921. The question of the toss was not discussed. The Advisory County Committee resolved that hours of play against Australians bo from 12 to 6.30 on the first and second days, and from 11.30 to 5.30 for the third day. with an extra half-hour when there is a definite result. The question of future visits to and from Australia was deferred.
