Q: Who played the best innings you've seen in a game you played?
A: Poidivein Gray PG’s at Bankstown Oval early 86.
I think we were playing Syd Uni and they were chasing. As number 7 was walking in, Mark who took over the Skipper duties as Stephen was in Test Team said to us, “ let’s knock them over and we’ll go to the Races”. Yes the little fella scored a Ton and won the game!
Great innings, Great Lesson, Great Memories !🏏

Q: The following were my guiding principles as a wicket keeper
1. The nuts and bolts - footwork and hands. Hard work to develop technique and fitness that will stand up under pressure and tiredness both up to the stumps and back.
2. Run the fielding standard, set the example, and expect standards from the team.
3. Be the captain’s and bowler’s aid - field setting, bowling changes, ideas, advice.
4. Be a good team man and always be involved in the group activities.
5. Work harder than everyone else. Only one of you so the position deserves respect if you want to keep it.

A: The stumping Healy made off Bevan I think from memory was amazing .
A full toss on leg stump, Butcher I think was the “ Batsman” missed it the rest is History!🏏
