ENGLISH TOURING TEAM

ARRANGEMENTS UNDER WAY. ITINERARY EXPECTED SHORTLY. (By Tfelesrrapl).—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, Saturday. According to a statement to-day by the secretary of the New Zealand Cricket Council, Mr Windsor, negotiations for the coming tour of the Dominion by the M.C.C. team are well in train. The itin • ary is on the point of completion, after being held up owing to the necessity of obtaining the racing dates so as to prevent any clash of fixtures. Details will be published shortly. The Dominion tour will be ten days longer than the tour of Gilligan’s team in 1929-30, and if desirable two more matches can be played. The team will arrive here in the middle of December.

Mr Windsor emphasised the point that there would be no “test" matches, -though there would be matches between the M.C.C. team and the Newzealand eleven. In the 193637 season New Zealand would probably be visited by an Indian team under the control of Duleepsinhji. This tour was practically assured. In the same season the English test team would make a short visit to New Zealand at the end of its Australian tour, so the New Zealand public would see two overseas sides in the same season.
