ENGLAND'S DIFFICULT TASK TO SAVE DEFEAT TO-DAY
A century partnership for the second wicket between Bruce Mitchell, the sound and con- sistent batsman from Transvaal, and E. A. Rowan, a steady and attractive batsman, has given the South African cricket tourists a com- manding advantage in the Second Test match which is being played at Lord's. The pair put on 104 runs before separation. When stumps were drawn the tourists had made 208 runs for six wickets in reply to England's first innings total' of 198. The South Africans are thus 238 runs ahead with four wickets to fall and England has to bat to-day in the fourth innings.
