AUSTRALIA FOLLOWS OH

DISMISSED FOR 93 RIJNS STAND IN SECOND INNINGS .173 FOR THREE WICKETS By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. ’ London, Aug. 11. The Australians made their smallest total of the tour against a weak Northants eleven, being all out for 93 and being made to follow on. Play was resumed 45 minutes late owing to rain, and the wicket was affected. Jackson’s chance of inclusion in the last test was dimmed by his cheap dismissal, he returning the bowler an easy catch. The first wicket fell at 14. Bradman started delightfully but afterwards was uncomfortable facing Jupp. Seventy minutes’ play before luiich. produced 48. .With the addition of only 11 runs Jupp scut back Woodfull, Bradman and Fairfax. The last-named batted for half an hour for one run. ’ Kippax and Richardson were also unhappy and at 65 Kippax had his wicket shattered. Richardson luckily lasted for 40 minutes. The tail-enders offered no resistance, and as the Australians were 156 behind they were forced to follow on for tlie first time during the tour. Nine wickets fell after lunch for 45 runs. Woodfull and Jackson re-opened at 4.35 when the wicket was easier. Richardson ran for Jackson, whose injured ankle gave way. His batting was unaffected, however, «for he hit cleanly all round the wicket. Jupp again worried the batsmen but received little assistance from the pitch. The pah* scored freely. Jackson’s graceful 50 occupied 100 minutes. Soon afterwards he was again caught and bowled .and Harwood played out time. ’ CHAPMAN EXCLUDED FROM TEST. HOBBS UNWILLING 'l’o CAPTAIN.

The News-Chronicle learns on the best authority that Chapman will not only not be captaining England in the Test but is unlikely to have a place in the team. Wyatt, the Warwickshire captain, is likely to be substituted. Hobbs expresses a strong disinclination to accept the
