on for ever and no cricketer would have more sweet an eternity-1m tie threw away his wicket with the only mortal stroke he made. Striding forward to punch a fairly fast ball from Nayudu he hesitated for a moment, as though wondering whether it would be wise to be quite so thoroughly offensive and the ball tilted back the off stump. The scene lost something with his departure. We had grown so accustomed to seeing him there, the disdainful nick of his bat and footwork that the ground now seemed like a room which had been robbed of its one gay picture. His innings lasted 190 minutes and yielded 21 boundaries.

The manner of Fishlock's opening promised great things to coma, but the promise was unfulfilled. Deceived by a swinger he played it on to his wicket and left for the pavilion, there to ponder on the innings he might have made. ALL-INDIA BATS, TOURISTS REDUCE BIG LEAD TO 178 Opening Pair Put On 190 Without Loss Century for Mushtaq Ali HOME BATTING SUCCESSES By 1. K. THOMPSON ENGLAND'S batting is fine enough to recapture the any day, but while our bowling is so weak they will remain where they are.

That is the conclusion to be drawn from yesterday's play in the second Test Match against All-India. Scoring 571 runs for eight wickets. England thus gained a first innings lead of 368 arid were then unable to capture an Indian wicket, so that when stumps were drawn their had been reduced to spirited and plucky reply from India and a sorrowful exposure of the limitations of the English attack. News of the charm and glory td Hammond's batting caused happily expectant queues to be formed outside the ground before play began. The dew had failed to affect the wicket, which behaved all day with great friendliness to batsmen, both good and bad retired for attention.

Nayadu took his place until he returned, optimistically doing without pads. After this delay, Worthington, who had batted with consistent steadiness and vigour proceeded on his delightful way until he failed to get hold of a ball and was caught at mid-on by the heroic Nayudu, who took the powerfully hit drive high above his head. The Derbyshire man missed his century, but did more than sufficient to justify a trip to Australia. No one can deny the amiable sportsmanship of these Indians and another example of it was given when Allen eaine out to bat, the whole team going towards him and congratulating him on his tour appointment by clapping. Allen was soon out, giving Ainar Singh a well deserved wicket.

Hardstaff struck three 4's and two 2's in one over before be tapped a ball back to Singh. He had hit 15 4's. His innings, which lasted 80 minutes was one of which any cricketer would be prowl. Hammond's innings was con. tinued as fluently as it had begun, his bat lifted so delicately it might have been part of himself and his strokes played with such time to spare one might have thought the ball was being pitched just where Hammond asked it to land.

Even the tantalising manner in which he steered his strokes through an apparently well-placed field tailed to wipe the grins from dusky faces. These Indians will be remembered as a eg the cheerful losers cricket has ev wn. Most of the day they ha uplored the far corners of Old Trd in vain efforis to prevent the ball banging the paint off the rails. Nothing seems to discourage them, and their captain, vast in humour as he is in circumference. is undoubtedly the world's merriest millionaire.

Hammond, I think, could have gone TEST SCOREBOARD ALL-INDIA. 10 Inn Merchant, tOommond 0 Verity 33 not out Muithin' Ah, run out 13 not out Amor Singh, Ouch worth Worth ton 17 Nat Naoudu. lbw (n) Allen 16 I Whir All, ingters tieruty Ramerwamt, Varoty busemertiri Allan a Verity 11111 Varoanagraiii. fa Robins RIR 111 Hisser, Nana stab Robins 13 Extra Total 2nd Inns.

Not until he had been at the wickets for about 20 minutes did he reveal his true brilliance. Then like a plant that has suddenly felt the power of the sun, he blossomed out, with a range of strokes, so diverse and adventurous, that they fully compensated a crowd grievously saddened by Hammond's departure.

At this stage Meherhomji, all-India's wicketkeeper, hurt his hand and WIN FOR ASTON UNITY A closely contested cricket match was witnessed at Trinity-road, Aston, last night between Aston Unity and the Pilgrims.

Bob Leivers, who swam In the squadron race, demonstrated a Rumbas straiten LIVELY ROBINS Robins disturbed the dignity of the Law by aiming at a squatting policeman, who jumped out of the way with more alacrity than discretion.

A hit was registered and the spectators jeered their delight. Verity and Robins reached the halfcentury mark at almost the same time. Then the Middlesex player mislaid the small amount of restraint he habitually possesses and was caught at mid-on off an unusually wild stroke. As usual his innings had been a joyful escapade. His is a lively spirit no attack can subdue.

The Innings was declared closed shortly after the total had reached the second highest ever to be scored In a Manchester Test Match. The runs had been made at the rate of about one and a halt a minute. In the two and a half hours which remained the All-India opening batsmen instead of being dispirited at England's huge score played as though their team had victory well in sight. The bowling was made to look as though schoolboys had taken on a county team. The running was again indecisive, but their stroke play was excellent.

most impudent of all being Merchant's facile glides to leg. Merchant and Mushtaq Ali put on 190 without loss. All getting a century out of this total. Roth men batted so well that one was almost persuaded into thinking our bowlers cannot have very much stiffer opposition in Australia. The bowling was not good enough, though the length of some of our slow bowlers is still deplorable, and the bowling of Allen and Gover lacked that, essential fierceness with which such men as 'Arwood can take wickets.

Harm A. COM" 41 14 TT BIRMINGHAM GAZETTE, TUESDAY, 28 JULY, 1936 EXPOSE LIMITATIONS OF ENGLAND ATTACK CROOM'S LUCK TURNS WITH CHANGE OF BATTING ORDER DOGGED DISPLAY AT EDGBASTON Stand with Collin Helps Warwick By COVER POINT A CHANGE of air can be very effective. Arthur Croodi, Warwickshire's No. 1 batsman had, over a series of matches up to just recently been suffering from an anaemic batting record, and over 14 consecutive innings the highest score he could show was 19, and in only one other of those 14 Innings did he reach double figures. Then, the other day, he asked for a change of air," or.

in other words, for a different place In the batting' order, and from No. 1 he was moved to No 1.) And on his third outing in this I new spot, against Lancashire at Edgbaston yesterday, he came along with a 75, which helped Warwickshire to a comfortable total of 284. iis top score of the innings, awl it also equalled Croom's highest score of this was a 75 he got at Worcester at Whitsuntide before the rot set in for him. Otherwise was stolid soundness testitiedto the way in which that change of air is doing hint good. Another Warwickshire batsman, Tom Collin, also pulled himself out of a bad patch at the expense of the Lancashire bowling.

His highest score of this season was to yesterday afternoon, when, hitting three 4's, and three 3's. he ran up 6i in an hour and three-quarters and helped to add 903 for the sixth wicket. DITERMINED BATTING His was not a sparkling innings yesterday, but it was the sort of effort that one likes to see from a man who has been out of form and out of luckwatchful, dogged and very determined. He spent three and three-quarter hours at the wickets, and be hit three is and a The latter, which was in such startling contrast to the rest of Crown's innings, came from a lovely straight drive off Parkinson, after he had been in three hours and a half. WYATT'S THROAT TROUSLI And another Warwickshire batsman gut further into the bad patch that he has been floundering In.

That was Bob Wyatt. He registered his first duck of the season for Warwickshire, and 1 felt very sorry for him, because he never ought to have batted, and he should not have fielded, as he did, later In the day. Hls place was In bed, and the doctors told him so. 11., i itutibled rth a throat affection, and, arising out of It, the painful malady, earache, has kept him without a wink of sleep for two nights. Fortunately, Warwickshire have a rest this next three days, and with that, Wyatt may be tit by the week-end.

He had Jack Smart and Eric Hollies to keep hint company In the duck market yesterday. Lancashire had SO minutes batting before the close, and Mayer gave them a quick Jolt, by bowling Washbrook with one which kept low, when there were only five runs scored, and that proved the only bowling success Warwickshire could get last night, Lancashire finishing up 231 behind with nine wickets left. Iddon followed to the ereace. Hr uas still in when stumps were draun. Merely as a matter of interest, and not in any effort to frighten anybody.

The Englishmen were a few encouraging coo-ees was due rather to the lapses of the two English- both anxious, and Crawford's service men than to brilliant play on the other return was mainly responsible for the side of the net. Australians taking the lead at 6-1 Hughes and Turkey were only well against Hughes.

In We had a reprieve, however, the second set Turkey was sighting when the crisis proved too much fry the hall in his best form, which meant Quist and six all was called. Fiv that his cross court driving was boili games later Tucker was called creating gaps and evoking weak to serve again and once more lie fai returns for Hughes to despatch. Tuckey's return of service hereabouts was equally good and his close volleying steady, where it had previously been erratic ELEVEN SERVICES DROPPED CraiA tolluA and on the becon matclipotnt, the Australians wei successful. The English pair never recovered from the loss of Hughes's service in the very first game of the opening set.

A game behind, they tried to drive their way through a solid Australian defence at the net, rarely risking a lab for fear that it should be short. Eleven services were dropped, foul by Hughes. three by Quist and twi each by Tuckey and Crawford unfortunately, were at vita points of the match. He was a loni time striking his best form and couk not hold it long enough when it cams to him. The Austialians were very stead inevitably punishing the weak ball and never giving their opponents a second chalice.

So when their twodove lead became Quist held his service ansb the set had gone at 6-4. Although Hughes cropped his service again in the second set, which England won at 6-2, Crawford's service was captured once and that of Quist twice, during the one period of the match when the Englishmen were definitely on top. Hughes lobbed well and both he, and his partner, hit hard especially at Quist, who did not recover until the score was level at two games all in the third set. By that time, however, the wily Crawford was evolving plans for breaking up a British attack which. if maintained, was certain to win its sheer vigour.

Hughes was a trifle too impulsivi but the Australians won because there was brain behin their game that, that of the Englit pair. Crawford and Quist won 6-4, 7-5, 10-8, SKILFUL FLAY skilfully the Ausralian succeeded the score in the next two sets revealed. Off the ground Crawford played as he would a singles, seeking seemingly impossible angles when so much of the court was covered by his opponents. 'there was nothing better than his return of service to the forehand of Hughes making for the net. Crawford hail to get the ball over the net and past the point of intersection of ball 'and racket before the striker was in position.

He did it so often that Hughes became over-anxious in trying to serve to Crawford's backhand. In the rallies, too, Crawford was always seeking the one unguarded spot on the court. Never severe, a short lob tapped back out of reach was as effective and far less exhausting to the striker than Tuckey and Hughes, who slammed down the middle smashes which the agile Quist often returned accurately, The Englishmen could certainly leave angledtheir volleys with greater advantage. All this became manifest in the third set, went with the service for ten games before Hughes again failed in the eleventh.
