50 years ago, Poidevin-Gray matches were played on New Years Day. Back then, the scores were published in the morning papers.

In 1975, there were a few wet tracks in Sydney, batting was difficult and mostly bowlers were successful.
The game at Pratten Park was a low scoring game. Nepean (now Penrith) batted first and scored 109. Wests Mark Spicer played well scoring 71 not out.
I’m not sure when the test matches were played in Sydney in 1974-75 but Allan Border scored a half century and took a few wickets for Mosman in PG’s on New Years Day, fifty years ago.
