“TOO GOOD FOR US” SAYS CHAPMAN.
THINKS BRADMAN IS MENACE TO ENGLAND. LONDON, August 19. The resumption of the test match for five minutes, which is described as farcical, finds ample criticism in the newspapers. The “Daily Express” says: “It is lucky for all concerned that the two Australians, particularly Bradman, were able to play the bowling. For, had either been dismissed, the memory left would be decidedly unpleasant. England would have deserved never to have heard the last of it.” A. P. F. Chapman, writing -in the “Daily Mail,” says: “There is nothing to say about this match except that Bradman is a definite menace to English cricket. This brilliant batsman is too good for us. He never looked like getting out. England was definitely outpointed on Tuesday’s play. Australia is now on top, and I am afraid that we will now have great difficulty in avoiding defeat.” The “Morning Post” says: “Australia should now win whatever pranks the weather is up to.”
