Q: Greg Geise was an incredible batter.
I played with him for a season in Newcastle and he scored back-to-back double hundreds and in a mid-week game for Northern NSW he scored a ton v India.
He scored 600 runs in ten days in three innings.
When he came back from playing India, we were sitting in the dressing room and I was picking his brain.
He said India opened the bowling with Kapil Dev and Manoj Prabakha.
Prabakha took the first over and got a wicket first ball of the match and Giesey was batting three. He said the following:
“He bowled me a massive outswinger first ball, so I just blocked it. Then second ball was a massive inswinger, so I blocked that. As he walked back to his mark I thought, that’s all this blokes got, so I ran at him and hit him back over his head”
