BRITISH MATCH RACE CHAMPION

Says HERBERT SUTCLIFFE

Many cricket enthusiasts are asking if anything can be done to avoid a repetition of wh it virtually amounted to a fight for first innings lead in the fourth Test match at Headingley.

"That being the case, we must find some way of rewarding the side which has the better of the match,

With that end in view, I sug- Why?

Even Malcolm Hilton. Eng- land's No. 11 batsman, had no. dimeulty in remaining at the wicket for a long period, and while he purhed straight down the line he never looked like getting out.

These facts and figures all add weight to my contention that a first innings win should count for something.

I should like to put on record my personal highlights of the Leeds Test-the hits and misses which will stand cut in my

memory.
