Rain Interferes With GlamorganAustralia Match
London, Aug. 2. Rain interfered with--the Australian’s match against Glamorgan, but Miller gave the bank holiday crowd an exhilirating display of big hitting before '.lay was abandoned for the day at 3.30 p.m. Australia was then 215 for three, 18 ahead. Miller reached 84, made in 100 minutes, with five sixes and seven fours. Hass'et;, who is 71 not out, was overshadowed by Miller’s exuberant hitting but his innings, nevertheless, was chanceless and correct. Scores:
Total for three wickets 215 Bowling: Woolier, one for 16, Watkins one for 47, Trick none for 41, Muncer none for 41, Clay one for 1, Jones, none for 10.
(The match has been abandoned because of rain.)
