Indians Don’t Wish to Spoil Reputations

NOTED PLAYERS ABSENTEES FROM SIDE.

Received Sunday, 7.0 p.m. CALCUTTA, Jan. 11. The Indian team for the Ali-Imiia match, commencing yesterday, was weakened by the refusal or the inability of the following players to participate: Major C. K. Nayudu, who claims he needs rest; the Nawab of fataudi, alleged illness; Amarnalh, alleged injuries; Amur Singh, no reason; Merchant, alleged injuries; Nazir All. reported bitten by a mad dog; Jai, unable to get leave; Lali Singh, no reason As a result, Wazir Ali is leading practically a second team. Critics express the opinion that the Indian cricketers fear the risk of further spoiling their reputations by failures against Ryder’s men, who arc doing much better here than Jardiue’s team with several of England’s best. India has gained a wholesome respect, for Australian cricket, but the object of tiie present tour, namely, i;o help the Indian selectors to choose a side to visit England in the summer, is not likely to be attained.
