THE TASMANIAN MATCH. OFFICIALS INCENSED. ENGLISH CAPTAIN CRITICISED. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) , Received December 27, 11.45 a.m. SYDNEY, Dec. 27. An exclusive article in the Herald states: Certain incidents during the England-Tasmanian match have aroused intense resentment among officials of the Tasmanian Cricket Association. They say more will be heard of the matter. The chairman of the association, Colonel Mullen, said the failure of Jardine to use any of his regular bowlers on Saturday was an insult to manian cricket. He intended to bring the matter under the notice of the Board of Control. When the first inspection of the wicket was made the Tasmanian captain held the view that tno ground was fit for play. Jardine threatened not to lead his men out and made the suggestion that Tasmania could have the game by forfeit. " The former Australian captain, Mr J. Darling, said he never witnessed a bigger farce in first-class cricket. The Australians had played Test matches in England on far- worse wickets.
