- (By ATHOLE)
T. Larkin, who has an average of 224 for his last three in- nings, will receive his first big test to-day when he will be confronted for the first time with the spin bowling of T. A. Pearce, and the fast bowling of A. C. Beck when the Navy meet the Club in the deciding match - in the Triangular Cricket Tournament commencing to-day.
The K.C.C. possessed neither
fast bowler nor a medium paced spin bowler, and the Army were in the same position.
