Q: Who is the fastest bowler you’ve ever faced in a game of cricket?
A: By the time I batted, the bowlers were pretty worn out, however, I did face Wasim Akram on a seeming greentop at Manuka in 1992 and I couldn’t get a bat on him. His arm whizzed over, I lunged forward, the keeper caught the ball and tossed it off to first slip. That was the only time I saw it.

The fastest bowling I have witnessed up close was a game at ANU South Oval when Jamaican left arm fast bowler Ken McLeod was playing for ANU against his former team Wests. That was terrifying at first slip. He was very, very rapid.

Q: Who played the best innings you've seen in a game you played?
A: Les Johns – for Sutherland v Wests at Carringbah.

Gutsiest, Graeme Hughes for Petersham at Pratten Park after he was hit in the ribs on 11 and winced for every ball after that. Turns out he made 111 and had two broken ribs.
