SAYS PETER DITTON

London.

The West Indies have arrived. Their grand victory over England at Lords by 326 runs has only served to strengthen my belief that this year the "pupils" are going to be too good for the "masters."

After the first Test at Old Trafford I said that the West Indles despite their defeat had great reason for being pleased; that in Ramadhin and Valentine they had found two of the greatest young spin bowlers produced by any country at any time.

The Lords Test has proved the truth of these words. Never have I seen apin bowlers take such command on a batsman's wicket as these two did. The England batsmen appeared paralysed and, with the exception of Washbrook and Parkhouse, were completely unable to deal with such an attack.
