English Balls For Tests In Australia
Melbourne.
The Australian Board of Control has agreed to the use of English- made cricket balls in the forthcom- ing Test matches between England and Australia, but the Board has asked the M.C.C. to approve the use of Australian-made balls in all other matches during the tour.
It is recalled that during the tour of 1928-29, Mr. A. P. F. Chapman would not agree to the use of Aus- tralian balls in the match against Victoria,
The Board of Control has also ask- ed for a change in tlie rules regard- ing the covering of wickets for all games other than Tests.
Previously a covering for foothold for batsmen and bowlers has been provided, but the Board has now res commended that once. the match has started, the wicket stall be entirely protected from rain, and shall be covered wholly from the end of each day's play until 7 a.m. on the follow- ing day, when it shall be removed, it the weather is fnc.
This is the practice adopted in Sheffield Shield games.
