ENGLAND SELECTORS
THE CHINA" MAIL, THURSDAY, AUGUST 23) "1950.
HAVE TWO PROBLEMS TO SOLVE IN FINAL TEST
London, Aug. 22.
England cricket selectors have two problems to, solve before they announce the exact eleven to oppose Australia in the final Test' at the Oval tomorrow.
They have to decide whether to include that dynamic wicketkeeper, Evans, who has a cracked rib, and which player shall be left out from the 12 they chose last Sunday.
Whereas the Australians underwent their last try-out at Lords, the England players gathered at the Oval where they spent an hour at the
nets.
