THE AUSTRALIAN CRICKETERS.
[By Electric Teleokaph— CortKtaar, PRESS COMMENTS. (Per Pbbss Association) _ London, July 18. Commenting on the recent performances of the Australian cricketers, the Standard says Turner ha? recovered something like his old form, while Trumble is proving an efficient bowler. The writer expects an exciting contest between the two teams at Lords next week. Tbo Sporting Life remarks that a month ago the failure of the tour seemed certain, but the team is now holding the honours. Referring to the match which began at Lords yesterday, the Sportsman thinks the result is doubtful, as the slowness of the wicket is in favour of the Australians. The Morning Leader considers the odds are in favour of the Englishmen. The latter are superior in batting, but the success of the Colonials, bowling on a dead wicket should nearly equalise matters.
