UNCERTAINTY OF CRICKET
AUSTRALIA AND SUSSEX No better example of the glorious uncertainty of cricket could
be afforded than that in the 1 lay on the first-day between Austr. lia and Sussex. At the iyncheon adjournment Australia hW lost ,ix wickets for 69 runs, Tate having the remarkable figures of six for 18. Then Kippax ajnd Hurwood and Hornibrook retrieved the situation and at the end of the day’s play Australia was still af* the batting crease, having lost nine wickets for 349 runs. The intense, heat experienced in England may have accounted for the collapse of the Sussex bowling. A remarkable feature of the day’s play was the failure of J. Langridge the ex-Auckland coach, with the ball. Langridge has performed exceptionally well as a bowler in county matches this season and is well np in the English averages.
