CRICKET,
PREPARATIONS FOR THE TEST I MATCH. By Telegraph—Press Association -Copyright j Sydney, Dee. 12. ! The teams had final practice at the nets i to-day. Maclaren’s batting showed no j trace of ins recent attack of rheumatism. , Jessop, who was slightly injured in the left arm at Newcastle, batted quietly. It is understood that the damage is not sufficient to handicap him to any extent. Several of the Englishmen showed decidedly improved form, Gunn especially. Trumble and Laver did a lot of work with the ball. Jennings has prepared a splendid wicket, and claims that if the weather holds it will last a week. The ground, after a long spell of hot, dry weather, is very fast. The weather to-night is tine, hut there is thunder hanging around. Maclaren finally selects liis team in the morning.
