Graham was a superb, elegant right-handed batsman, wonderful right-arm seam bowler and exquisite slip fieldsman. On the 3rd of December 1982, at the age of 21, Graham Spring was selected in the NSW Sheffield Shield team to play against South Australia at the SCG. He batted at Number 6 and bowled first change behind the Test pacemen, Len Pascoe and Mike Whitney. As testament to the strength of this NSW XI, which went on to win the inaugural Sheffield Shield Final that season, the other 10 members of this team all played Test Cricket for Australia.
