THE FIFTH AUSTRALIAN ELEVEN.
Nine good bowlers and ten good bats, Eleven fielders all active as eats, Game every one to catch anything eatchable, Two wicket keepers both simply unmatchable ! That is a team that should give us some trouble, And keep all our cricketing cracks at the double. Our home willow“wielders mist play up like bricks To collar that bowling, to tumble those sticks. Well, welcome boys, anyhow I Ton'll pull together. Here’s wishing you fortune, fair field, and fine weather. We’re looking for many a score-piling day. And win, lose, or tie, but not one wrangle I Hooray ! —London ‘jPunch.’
