WILL RETAIN THE ASHES
CONFIDENCE IN ENGLISHMEN STRONG BATTING SIDE {Australian and N.Z. Press Association) Reed. 12.53 p.m. LONDON, Wed. The “Morning Post,” in an editorial about the English cricket team for Australia, says they have enjoyed a summer of brilliant sunshine, an excellent preparation for cricket in the vivid air and sub-tropical heat of Australia. “Unless we are sadly mistaken, or misled by a season of too easy scoring, no stronger batting side has ever left Britain, and both the bowling and fielding should be as good as those ‘01! any necessarily experimental ‘elevens which will represent Aus--Itralia. Despite the barrage of Australian criticism, which is already be—ginning, we hope and believe the Ashes will remain in our possession.”
