THE TRIANGULAR MATCHES SCHEME.
TJn_ted Press Assocmtion —By Electrio Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, June 2. In reference to the decision of Australia not to participate in triangular matches, " Sporting Life " says that no doubt financial aspects influenced the Australians' decision. They wanted all Ihe oake, which would be divided between two if the South Africans were playing England during the same season. C. B. Fry, in the " Daily Chronicle," declares: —"lt is clear that Australia wants to continue the arrangement by which her team comes to England on Australia's terms to the very considerable profit of Australia's players, and ihe English team goes to Australia on terms infinitely more profitable to Australian than English interests, but our authorities aro determined that our cricket in future shall not be milked in favour of profits to Australia."
