COMPLICATIONS OVER TIIE ENGLISH TEAM GUARANTEE. Received lOfli, 1.5 a.m. Sydney, June IS. The question of guaranteeing the English cireket team threatens to lead to mrther complications. The trustees of the Cricket Ground have decided to i-harge 20 per cent, of the gross proceeds of the matches as rent for the ground. This is considered excessive by the Cricket Association. Mr McElliome, secretary of the Hoard of Control and a prominent member of the Association, estimates that this and other cliarg es will leave the Association with only 17 per cent, of the net profit on the takings. Under the circumstances it remained for 'lie Association, when it further considers the matter, to decide if it will be wise to take any financial responsibility.
