RUNS KEPT DOWN
GOOD DOMINION BOWLING. WARWICKSHIRE MATCH. FIELDING BRILLIANT. (From the Special Correspondent of tire United Press Association with the Team.) (By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) Received August 5, 9.55 a.m. BIRMINGHAM, Aug. 4. New Zealand’s weakened attack again achieved creditable success, Warwickshire being pinned down to a scoring rate so slow that the players were often ironically applauded. Their innings realised 259. Wyatt’s display was a typical one. 'The whole innings lasted almost four hours. It was a laboured effort with hardly a real ait a oiling stroke. Weir bowled an excellent length with considerable life, but had no *iuck. Vivian, although liis injured fingers were bound, was consistently steady. Moloney’s length was good and his spin persistent. Lamason’s length and direction were well controlled.
Some of the fielding was brilliant. Wallace took two fine catches and was responsible lor a smart run-out. Another run-out came from a quick return by Carson. A spectacular catch was taken by Pago in tlio slips and Donnelly made brilliant saves round the boundary. Tindill allowed only one bye. The fact that fewer than two runs an over were scored off Moloney and Vivian aptly illustrates how the attack constantly’ commanded respect. Birmingham had a half-holiday and a crowd of about 8000 witnessed the match. New Zealand batted for three-quar-ters of an hour in failing light. Details:—
VARIATION IN FORM. LORD TENNYSON PUZZLED. BIRMINGHAM, Aug. 4. Lord Tennyson, in a newspaper article, says that the bewildering variations of the New Zealanders’ form defy explanation. The players evidently have talent, but are unable consistently to reveal their ability. He says Cowio is one of the bowling marvels of the modern age. For consistency of length and direction he has no superiors at Home. Mr Gordon, in the Cricketer, says he understands Sir Julian Calm’s team leave in January for their tour of New Zealand.
DOMINION TEAM. MAY PLAY IN AUSTRALIA. SYDNEY, Aug. 4. Mr Tom Howard, Australian representative of the New Zealand Cricket Council, told the Sun that the New Zeal And cricket representatives would play three matches in Australia in November provided the players could obtain leave and the arrangements were confirmed before August 8.
