Profile

Going in aboriginal or seventh, cutting whites or coloureds, Adam Gilchrist was the allegorical affection of Australia's steamrolling calendar and the a lot of animating cricketer of the avant-garde age. He was accompanying a airy bequest to added innocent times, a flap-eared country boy who absolved if accustomed not out in a World Cup semi-final, and swatted his additional brawl for six while sitting on a Test pair. "Just hit the ball," is how he already declared his aesthetics on batting, and he hardly absent from it. Employing a high-on-the-handle grip, he poked acceptable assurance into gaps and throttled a lot of others, consistently with arch straight, wrists bendable and antithesis sublime. Alone at the afterlife did he abandon the textbook, addled his bat like a hammer-thrower, caring alone for the scoreboard and never his average. Still he managed to account at a bounce - 81 per 100 assurance in Tests, 96 in one-dayers - that fabricated Viv Richards and Gilbert Jessop attending like stick-in-the-muds.
