OPINION IS DIVIDED ON ENGLAND'S TACTICS
FOR
THE THIRD TEST
Nottingham, July 19.
The pitch for the Third Test Match between England and the West Indies, commencing at Trent Bridge here tomorrow, is damp on top following the recent rain and the weather remains unsettled.
The Test pitch, which has not been played on since the first Test against the Australian two years ago, may help bowlers at the start, czc- cording to Mr Fred Kershaw, the head groundsman.
"Ya it should be a batsman's paradise after the first hour,” he added. A special police guard will patrol the playing area during the night. The West Indies players arrived at Nottingham today and soon visited the ground. The England party were expected to arrive later this evening.
Jolm Goddard, the West Indies captain, will not decide upon his team until shortly before the match. "I have 16 players, all of them fit. from whom to choose the side," he explained. "Everything will depend upon the weather."
Opinion among cricket writers is divided over the tactics to be adopted in the Third Test between England and the West Indies tomorrow.
