A CANDID CRITIC
\ FTER paying a tribute to Jack Ryder for his courage and magnificent batting in the recent Test series, the famous Sydney critic, “Not Out/* candidly remarks: “But he is still rather too slow to sum up the position. And when he does get it, he dwells too long before acting. Chapman compelled things to happen. Ryder rather dwelt on and waited. However, he has improved, even in this direction, and if he be captain of the Australians next season, we may see him making his moves with greater alacrity. A fine fellow, modist in his own cricket, he is popular with his mates, and his success in the closing match, after a season of strange vicissitudes, gave great pleasure to all.”
