According to a statement to-day by the secretary of the New Zealand Cricket Council, Mr Winsor, negotiations for tho coming tour of the M.C.C. team are well in train.

The Dominion tour will be ten days longer than tiie tour of Gilligan's team in 1929-30, and if desirable two more matches can be played. The team arrives here in the middle of December. Mr Winsor emphasised the point that there would be. no “'lest matches, though there would be matches between the M.C.C. team and a. New Zealand eleven.
