CRICKET.
[Australia & N.Z. Cable Association.] CRICKET TEST COMMENT. (Received this day at 10.25 a.m.) LONDON, Dec. 9. The “Manchester Guardian” says the Australian trial, match suggests at first glance that Gilligan’s men were defeated by a team which might’ have been strengthened. Certainly the English were most lucky that Macartney played in none of the tests, and Grimmett in only one. Tlie latter is clearly a great bowler. If he can exploit his break on a perfect Sydney wicket, what sort of mischief will ho work on English pitches. Gregory’s century was a timely reminder that lie is not only a fast- howler, hut possibly the best all-rounder to-day.”
