It will be his twenty-seventh international.
Single-Wicket.—A. T. W. Grout, the veteran Australian wicketkeeper who retired from test cricket this season, beat the West Indian, W. W. Hall, in the final of a single-wicket competition at Brisbane. Grout dismissed Hall for 21. and won the match with a boundary.
Racing In Reverse.— To improve spectator appeal at the Pukekohe motor-racing circuit and to make the track safer for drivers the New Zealand international grand prix board of control has decided to reverse the direction of racing.
