Keith Miller Is To Cricket What Stanley Matthews Is To Professional Football
Keith Ross Miller is to ericket what Stanley Matthews is to pro- fessional football, Brilliant, unorthodox, a veritable genius in flannels, the sturdy six footer has the ability more than any other man to change the course of a game in just a few overs.
It may be an impossible catch at first slip, or it may be a couple of vital wickets in the twinkling of an eye, or, perhaps, as at Worcester, it may be a rollicking 1 poor total look respectable and a respec- hard-hitting fanings which can make

Undoubtedly it would be to Australia's advantage if Miller, fit and fresh, could play in The every match of the tour. risk of defeat would be even further reduced.
But 34 is a ripe old age for a man to bowl flat out, follow up with
a sparkling innings and, for Roxi mcusure, make one or two acrobatic catches in the near- wicket vicinity.
Therefore, while we shall see Miller at full stretch in the Test matches we are not likely to be treated to his best cricket in the relatively unimportant matches.

AUSTRALIANS GAIN THEIR FOURTH SUCCESSIVE VICTORY
BY AN INNINGS
MARGIN
Cambridge, May:14. The all-conquering Australian's gained their fourth successive vic- tory by an innings margin here today when they defeated Cambridge University by an innings and 106 runs.
The tourists scored 383 and then dismissed their opponents for 130 and 147. Cambridge were handicapped by rain which helped the bowlers, making the pitch very different from the easy-paced surface on which the Australians batted.
