Great man, great Cricketer, a true Yorkshire man.
Wes Hall thundered a few down on him as well !
Michael Holding to Brian Close 1976 .

Great man, great Cricketer, a true Yorkshire man.
Wes Hall thundered a few down on him as well !
I remember when a full blooded drive hit him on his unprotected head and deflected up in the air. His first thoughts and words to other fielders was "Catch it".
Great stuff that.
