"GOOD, LIVELY TEAM" SUEZ, Sept. 20. Hanson Carter, the former Australian w'ieke! keeper who believes "Australia will.keep the Ashes, but there v»ill be very little in it."— formed his opinion nftcr a summer spent, in. England. "England," ho said in an interview, ''is much too pessimistic .about the prospects of its team. England has a much belter side than people there think. •"■I .should like lo have seen Ifendren, Oompton, and Stephenson taken. "Novertneless, even without these three, England should be n good, lively team, strong all round with a battery of fast bowlers, I hough this is not necessarily the most important factor.'-*
It is characteristic of England that she should send a team away without the public encouragement which louring Australian .sides normally receive.
