Really was a brilliant batsman. Part of that Aussie side that schooled us over here in 1989 after we had won back to back Ashes series.

I remember watching him in a CC match for Derby as well and he was largely responsible for them going really close to a title win which would have been a huge achievement for an unfancied side.

Horrid news. Just heard it on TMS.

A wonderful batter. As a Captain and coach he was equally admired from what I've been told by those who have played with and for him.

What a huge loss.

Assumption is to make an ass out of you and me. Those who assume they know you, when they don't are just guessing. Those who assume and insist they know are daft and in denial. Those who assume, insist, and deny the truth are plain stupid. Those who assume, insist, deny the truth and tell YOU they know you (when they don't) have an IQ in the range of 35-49.

Sorry Gainsboroughblue, scrolled down and then saw your thread after posting my own. Such sad news, he was such a good watch at the crease when he batted and thoroughly entertaining. 59 is nothing these days, it's these types of stories that hit me like a sledgehammer!

Some amazing stories, great cricketer and certainly revolutionised one day batting.
