The picture on the left illustrates the way in which Don Biackie, who will be the stock bowler of the Australian cricket team in New Zealand, holds the ball in order to send down his off-break. That on the right is his legbreak grip. Blackie, a Victorian, is over 40, but is loked upon as Australia’s hope in the tests against the English side next season. He was considered to be unlucky to miss the last trip to England with the Australian XI.
