AUSTRALIA'S NEXT TEST SIDE
EX-TASMANIAN ALMOST A CERTAINTY
BRADMAN'S STEEL-SHAFTED BAT
(By "Leighton").
London, March 28.
IT augurs well for interest in the Test series between England and Australia, which begin at the end of this year, that already Australians are occupied with the delightful game of team- picking.
The Melbourne "Herald" suggests that Australia's team will be the same as that which won the fourth Test in South Africa, with two additions.
One is Bradman, as captain, in place of Victor Richardson; the other is C. L Badcock, the young ex-Tasmanian, who hit 325 for South Australia against Victoria and practically won the match off his own bat.
Badcock is, I imagine, a cer-
tainty if he keeps his form. AMERICA HAS MORE THAN This would give Australia the following team:
