Test Ponsford batted only eight time in first-class matches and his nggregate was 445. All ill-effects of the injury seem to have gone, and as he is footwork, keen eye- sight and excellent control of the bat, Ponsford will yet be seen at ble best by English spectators. His complets Test record is 318 runs at an average of 31. He was born on October 19, 1900, and is a fairly good fieldsman. During the winter Ponsford plays a lot of baseball.
