CRICKET.
fAUSTRALIAN & N.Z. CABLE ASSOCIATION] MAILEY’S SUCCESS. (Received this day at 11.30 a.m.) SYDNEY, February 16. The “Telegraph” says Mailey, as a howler, is superlative. He will go down in the history of the game as a record breaker. His wizardry twice stole the game from England. The crowd screamed the name of one man “Mailey.” At oii e stage, the Douglas, Fender combination altered the whole complexion of the game giving the Australians qualms until the attack of Madeyism arrived. The “Herald” says Mailey’s howling is remarkable as no bowler had previously taken more than eight wickets in tests. As in the previous tests, there were times when England was in a hopeful position but she was unable to hold it. Australia was lucky at the second knock, as Collins was dropped when only three. AVhnt an alteration, if Collins had not been missed in every test. ARMSTRONG’S SYMPATHISERS. MELBOURNE, February 16. A public meeting of Armstrong’s sympathisers adopted a resolution that the excuses given for Armstrong’s exclusion was unsatisfactory and that the selectors had lost the confidence of the public.
