[Australia & N.Z. Cable Association.] LONDON. Alareli 16. The new-papers give prominence to the sailing of the Australian team for England. Air P. F. Warner, writing in the “Morning Post,” confesses that he is an optimist, and says the tests won’t lie the “run away affairs" ut 1921. “Our cricket,” he adds, "has improved. The difficulty will be in making an effective combination, well equipped in all points.” In this connection, be quoted yearningly a letter from a critic in Australia, saying that those selected ought to be almost as good a fielding side as the 1921 team, which the "Alnrning Post" editorially says surely was never surpassed in this respect. While as regards bowling, it says. Everett is likely to be a source of unexpected strength, it must he assumed therefore, that the Australians. though admittedly strong in batting, are likely to bf> comparatively weak in fielding or bowling.
