Episode notes

Players ready ........ play

Today we look at the career of Neil Harvey. Arguably, Australia's greatest left hand batsman.

Starting as one of the "Invincible's" in 1948, his test career lasted until 1963.

He was one of the stars of the post Bradman era and a favourite of the Australian public given his sportsmanship and style of play. Also a brilliant fielder.

We look more closely at the tours of Sth Africa and the Ashes series which both straddle 1950 and in which Australia was successful.

Trust that you enjoy the episode.

That's stumps, DA
