White batted entertainingly, his perfect placing through O’Reilly’s leg trap being an object lesson. His partnership with Spence provided Lhe brightest provincial batting since the Tests. Weinand gave a breezy display, hitting up 22 in eighteen minutes. O’Reilly was at his Ijest, while Barnett, who kept wickets, brought off two brilliant stumpings. The innings lasted 207 minutes.

AFRAID FOR REPUTATIONS? LAHORE, Jan. 12. The Indian team was weakened by the refusal or inability of the following players to participate: —C. K. Nayudu, who claims he needs rest; Pataudi, alleged ilines; Amarnath, alleged injuries; Amar Singh, no reason; Merchant, alleged injuries; Nazir Ali, reported to have been bitten by a mad dog; Jai, unable to get leave; Lail Singh, no reason. A < a result Wazir Ali is leading practically the second team. Critics express the opinion that Indian crickters fear to risk further spoiling their reputations by their failures against Ryder’s men, who are doing much bettor here than Jardine’s team, with several of England’s best players. India has gained a wholesome respect for Australian cricket, but the object of the present tour—namely, to help the Indian selectors choose a side to visit England in the summer- is not likely to be attained.
