TRIANGULAR CRICKET MATCHES.

AUSTRALIANS CRITICISED. Received June 2. 7.5 p.m. London, June 2. In reference to tne decision of Australia not to participate in the triangular cricket matches, "Sport-, ing Life" says: — "No doubt tne financial aspects influence the Australians' decision. They wanted all the cake, which would not be divid | ed between the twq if South Africa were playing" 5 England, during the same season." * Mr 0. Fry in the "Daily Chronicle" deolres that "it is clear thai Australia wants to continue the arrangement by which her team comes to England on Australia's terms, to the very considerable profit of the Australian players. An English team goes to Australia on terms infinitely more profitable to Australia than the English interests, bub our authorites are determined our cricketers in future shall not be milKed in favour of a profit to Australia."
