Chapman said it will be a great pity if the 1033 English team does not visit New Zealand; It would be most helpful, to cricket there. “I do not see that it would involve any curtailment of the Australian programme. It might mean dropping a match at Perth on the return journey, but the last team was the first to play such a match. It could play at Perth on the way out.”
