Middlesex Heavily Trounced: hours later, when the 54 miles

E. T. Killick's Brave Knock

By A Home Correspondent

LONDON, June 5-The West Indies team won their match at Lord's yesterday so easily that the sharp edge which topped off the collective head of Middlesex was perhaps not quite "appre-" ciated. If ever a team did obligingly place their necks, one after the other, on the exact centre of the block it was Middlesex; that always with the exception of the Rev. E. T. Killick, who explained, what all the others should know, that on a fast wicket it is best to play forward. No one else seemed to agree with him, and so at 10 minutes past 1 the West Indies had won by ari innings and 228 runs.

For the West Indies it was a triumph, a proof that they are in fact a very good side, a team who can claim to beat the best County side that we can offer Yorkshire always excepted. It has been suggested that they lack the fast bowlers who under- stand the true value of the new ball, such men s Robinson of a few years ago of Yorkshire, but for my part they seem to bow] "fast enough with every hope of a snick from even the best of England's batsmen to have that one important wicket down before the clock has ticked 15 minutes.
