AUSTRALIAN CRICKETERS MEWS OK LONDON CRITIC i Rec. May 2. 2.45 p.m.) LONDON, May' 1. Mr. Howard Marshall, writing in the Daily Telegraph with reference to the opening of the Australian cricketers’ tour, says that Bradman is as great a batsman as ever. “His greatness dwarfs bis most eminent contemporaries, including McCabe, who is among the world’s first three batsmen, but McCabe is not going to allow us to forget him,” continues the critic. ‘T ingleton also is going to trouble England exceedingly. There is no doubt about Badcock’s finality. Hassett’s flowing strokes demanded attention.
"The team already exhibits mach-ine-like efficiency, this indicating that Australia will be just as hard to beat as ever.”
