Very, VERY close.

Whits did play alongside Marsh and Lillee when he debuted in the 1981 Ashes, as well as 3 tests with Warne in 1992.

Unfortunately, Greg Chappell missed that 1981 tour as this was when he scaled back his cricketing commitments post-World Series and predominantly only played at home



Ding ding ding! We have a winner.

An unlikely candidate, Mo Matthews was. His first 2 tests were Marsh/Lillee/G Chappell's final 2.

His career did span over nearly 10 years, but only played 33 tests - a fraction of Border's 156
Rumour has it he walked up to Greg Chappell in his first test and asked him what size shoe he wore, didn’t help him a few years later when Chappell became a selector.

I’m guessing Lohman from England, think he just got 100 wickets and I think all his games were against Aus. His average was something silly like 13 or 14.

If not him Syd Barnes also a Pom.

Charlie Turner Wickets 101 Average 16.53.
Best Figures 7/43.

AKA Terror Turner.

Widely regarded as one of the best pre-20th century fast bowlers, but some estimates suggest he barely got it above 100kph. Shows you how deadly it was to bat on an uncovered pitch if you were up against a skilled bowler.

Bagygreen? my nickname is Baggers. Please change to @baggygreenman. Will also change my avatar to stay in keeping with the sport. Am I able to later change username to a RL themed one should I wish?
