(United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright).
(Received this day at 1.0 p.m.) LONDON, Nov. 28,
11. Y. Tennyson, writing hr the “Daily Chronicle’’ says Australia lias an enormously powerful batting,' side, hut the howling is insufficient to turn the scale in Australia’s favour. Tennyson selects two teams, the first if the wicket is hard aiid fast, .following in batting order :—H’obbs, 'Sufcliffe, Jardine, Hammond, Hendren; Chapman, Leyland, Ames, Tate, Larwood, Freeman. It seems extraordinary to leave Geary out, but four fast bowlers are unnecessary. If Hammond is unable to play Geary is the obvious man tp take his place. He selects Leyland because he is a magnificent outneid. If the wicket is really sticky, the batting order should be:—Hobbs, Sutcliffe, Tv ldealey, Mead, Hammond, H/endren, Chapman, Amos, Tate, Whyte, Freeman.
