London, Nov. 23.
A proposal to e hours of play in Test matches between England and Australia has been made by the Advisory County Cricket Committee to the Australian Cricket Beal of Control.
1$ suggests that the hours of play in Tests between the two countries in England should be fixed at 30, being five days of six hours a day, and that Tests in Australia should be limited to six days of five hours each.
At present all Tests in Australia are played to a finish.
Speaking on the duration of Tests recently, Don Bradman said he favoured playing them in England to a finish. He thought that under normal conditions a result could be reached in five days. If it were decided to play five-day Tests, he said he would advocate a reduction in the hours of play.—Reuter.
