My dad's hero was Brian Statham and Jimmy reminds me of the great man very much.

If you are going off Test Match wickets alone Jimmy's your man, but I saw Dennis Lille when he was the professional at Haslingden and OMG he was quick!

Our neighbour at the time was the Haslingden wicketkeeper Brian Downham, and he used to say it took a week for his palms to stop hurting. He also said when Lille was at top speed he was standing with the slip fielders almost in the Bentgate Cattle Auction!

Aye BT. Lillee was a monster, and I used to watch him at Bentgate.

But I remember Wes Hall and Charlie Griffiths. At Hassy, when they were playing Burnley, Griffiths used to start his run up almost at the boundary. And by hell, he was fierce.

Hall and Griffiths for me. With Jimmy probably the best English fast bowler for me.
