AUSTRALIAN «fc N.Z. CABLE ASSOCIATION j CLEM HILL’CRITICISES. 7 (Received This Day at 10.40 a.m.) ADELAIDE, Nov. 8. Clem Hill criticising the Englishmen on their play so far, says Parkin is a sort jof Johnny all sorts bowler. He bmy'ls an off and leg break, a googly a good fast one, but Hill is inclined to believe lie is not able to spin the ball enough on Australian wickets to be dangerous. He compares Howell to Cotter, but he is not so fast. Wilson is the best slow howler in the team, hut Hill thinks Douglas will be England’s stay in,t|ie bowling line. On the whole, he considers the visitors bowling strength much inferior to that of the last English eleven, which visited Australia. They have no such great howlers as Barnes and Foster. In fielding tl>e. team is lacking in the activity which characterised previous English elevens. His opinion is that Australia has quite an even chance of winning the rubber. He is much impressed with Hendren’s batting and Russell’s and Makepeace’s solid defensive play. It looks as if the Marylebone had chosen batsmen for their solidness rather than brilliance. THE VICTORIAN TEAM. MELBOURNE, Nov. 8. The team chosen to represent Victoria against England on Friday is— Armstrong, Mayne, Ryder, Ellis, McDonald, Park, Liddicutt, Lamport, Wills, Ransford, and Baring. Emergency—Moyes. m
