Durham could amass only 121, leaving Australia 23 to get to win, which Collins and Mayne knocked up. Mayne and Ryder, the not-out men on the first day, were easily disposed of. One run was added to the overnight total of 200 when Ryder was run out.

July 19, 5.5 p.m.) London, July 18. The Australian cricketers went for a 120-milo motor drive on Sunday, lunching with Lord Armstrong at Craigside. There were about forty in tho party. The Australians wore delighted with their visit to Sunderland, Mr. Smith promising to recommend that Durham ehould never be missed by a touring side.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn. ENGLISH TEST TEAM SURPRISE FOR THE NEWSPAPERS. London, July 18. The nowspapei's are surprised at tho latest reshuffling of the Test team, especially tile dropping of Parkin. Marriott is a right hand medium-paeed bowler. Against the Players he got four wickets for 55 runs. Parker is a lefthand. bowler, above medium pace. He has taken 92 wicekts, and his average is 16.44. Against Warwickshire last week he took eleven wickets for 137. —Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn. (Rec. July 19, 10.30 p.m.) London, July 18. It is likely that Strudwick will be restored to the wicket-keeper’s position at Manchester. Brown is 'being played ior his batting. Marriott's selection in the place of Whits is not approved in some quarters. White’s bowling at Leeds was remarkably good, although he had no luck. None of the Australians were over confident against White, who preserved a perfect length. The “Star" points out that it is difficult to conjecture why Marriott is preferred, considering White’s fine work at Leeds.—United Service. SELECTORS LOOKING- AHEAD. (Rec. July 19, 10.30 p.m.) London, July 18. Though the English selectors are pleased with the improvement shown in the Leeds match,’ they seem to bo taking e. long view of their responsibilities in choosing the team for the fourth 'lest match. Apparently they agree with Sydney Pardon’s article published in “The Times,” that tho best course, now the Ashes are lost, is to build up in view of the next tour in Australia. —United Service.
