SECOND TEST MATCH
"CLOUDY WITH SOME RAIN”.
CAPTAIN'S CENTURY ON EVE
OF BIG GAME
London, June 21. The official forecast issued to-day regarding the weather for the Second Test at Lord's is as follows:
"Cloudy with some rain”
In the meantime, R.ES. Wyatt, England's captain, whose injured thumb kept him out of the first Test, and which has been causing some anxiety since, reports everything to be excellent. He is perfectly fit.
To demonstrate this, Wyatt to-day turned out for Coventry and North Warwickshire against Northern Liverpool in a friendly match at Coventry, and scored 144 not out in 110 minutes, hitting one six and eleven boundaries.
t
Afterwards, Wyatt said he was quite satisfied with his thumb, and that he would report fit for the Text-Reuter.

Two things seem to have been established on the eve of the second Test match at Lord's. Firstly that it is highly probable | there will be a sticky wicket at some period of the match. Secondly that R. E. S. Wyatt will lead the England side free from Wonderful Stag any thumb trouble.
