RESPONSIBILITY OF ENGLISH CRICKET XI
(By Vernon Morgan, Reuter's Sport Editor)
London, October 10. The England cricket team now on its way to South Africa has perhaps greater responsibility than any other sporting side which has left Britain's shores since the war, In view of England's mizerable showing at this ancient British ̧ game in recent tours and in the last few years. The debacle of the last two tours to Australia and the West Indies is fresh in every cricket lov- er's mind and it is up to the team now on the high seas to regain the lost prestige and to prove that there are still some first class: cricketers left in Britain.
