Remembered as one of the most successful bowlers of Australia, Ray Lindwall was a real match winner with his fast, yet accurate deliveries. A member of Bill O'Reilly's at Sydney's famous St George club, Ray Lindwall gave up rugby in favor of cricket after the Second World War, and was for a many years acknowledged as Australia's new-ball bowler, a winner under all circumstances. His strong, rhythmic line of attack, firm run and late swing silenced the whole cricketing world after a yorker of his bowled Len Hutton in the Headingley Test of July 1953 and it was received with the gravity of an announcement of war. He was a man of many talents, and like his famous bowling partner Keith Miller, Ray Lindwall was also very useful with the bat. The 1947-century he made in Melbourne is one of the fastest by any Australian. Cricketscorelive.com provides the profile of Ray Lindwall and other cricketers around the world. |
