THE NEW ZEALAND TEAM. BIR J. CAHN'S ELEVEN MET. GOOD BATSMEN GO CHEAPLY. (Prom the special correspondent of the Unite'd Press Association with the team). (Reoeived Aug. 12, 3.15 p.m.) NOTTINGHAM, August 11. Twenty-three wickets well in a day cf sensational cricket, when the New Zealanders met Sir Julian Cahn’s eleven at Nottingham, to-day. The wicket was exceptionally fast and good batsmen on both sides were beaten by exceptional bowling. Batting first the home' team was out for 80 and in reply the visitors made 106. When stumps were drawn Sir Julian Cahn's eleven had lost three wickets for 65 runs. Cowie and Carson bowled with such fire that the first five home wickets fell for 27 runs and the whole side was out before lunch. Sir Julian Cahn’s team included several internationals, whose cheap dismissal reflecte'd great credit on the bowlers. Dempster Included. Dempster waw~ included after the team was first announced but was dismissed cheaply. Against Crisp and Morkel, two "°uth African test players, and Mudge, an Australian, the New Zealand wickets also tumbled quickly. The only players to stay long were Carson, Weir and Wallace. New Zealand’s lead was small but Cowie again bowle'd magnificently in Cahn’s second innings. •Roberts, after a month’s Idleness bowled without distress and may play in the third test. STR .T.

MACARTNEY’S VIEW. r *- • Ftnr T'»* PM-.V'-Urh (Received Aug. 12, 3.15 p.m.) SYDNEY, Aug. 12. C. G. Macartney, writing in the Sydney Morning Herald, says England's team for the final test against New Zealand should be superior but, although three changes have been made, the selectors have not adopted duly progressive measures.
