One of the first of wicketkeepers who became popular with his performances as both batsman and wicketkeeping. He set many records in wicketkeeping and his partnership with Lilllee was exemplary. Dismissals like ‘c March b Lillee’ was one on the top records for quite some time. Some of his catches have great stories Edited March 5, 2022 by coffee_rules Link to comment

Some of his catches have great stories his batting record is similar to Kirmani and worse than Dujon, Engineer etc. Was Kirmani legendary too. Its like saying Kaif is legendary just for his fielding.
