Australia batted all day for 316, that is to say an averago of loss than one per minute. They scored 103 in the two hours before lunch, 143 in the 24 hours between lunch and tea, and 70 in the 105 minutes

That was a startling concession, and Mr. Lloyd George thought it would be a grave disaster if this opportunity were thrown
