Thirty-five thousand people were present after tea. Bromley substituted for Bradman whose injury was due to the roughness of the outfield. One hundred and fifty runs occupied 185 minutes. Wyatt’s plucky innings of two hours ended when he tried to swing Grimmett to leg. The ball made pace from the pitch and dislodged the bails. Grimmett fully deserved the wicket, for he had repeatedly beaten the bats- | men. Wall bowled better than on any previous occasion in this match, but Hendren and Leyland confronted him with golid defence. Grimmett, who was in great form, bowled prodigious breaks, often beating Leyland, but the batsmen hung on doggedly until stumps. The innings | thus far has occupied 260 minutes.
