London, Aug. 3. ‘‘The impression the earlier tests leave is that the Australians are the better team,” says Mr P. F. Warner in the Morning Post. “Though England possesses fine individual players the side docs not seem to blend as a ,cpmbina» tion, largely owing to the lack of all» rounders. Our batting lias not quite reached expectations, despite individual good efforts. Leyland has not done all expected ..of him. His length is inade* quate. Parker is the most effective lefthand bowler in England but, being 43 years of age, he is a poor l>at and field. Nevertheless if a soft wicket were assured he would strengthen the bowling. Chapman is an inspiring leader but seems to have declined a little as a tactician.”
