Leslie Walter Pye was an iconic cricketer with the Parramatta District Cricket Club, in a First Grade career that stretched from 1894/95 to 1918/19 (although he filled in for the firsts in a game during the 1921/22 at the age of 51 years scoring 21 runs and claiming 5/44 v. St George). The brilliant allrounder a skilful and stylish top-order batsman, a crafty leg-spinner and outstanding slips fieldsman – one of only two players to score 7,000+ runs and capture 300+ wickets in NSW Premier First Grade Cricket for the Parramatta Club (M.A. Wood was the other player).
