Athers won't be here on this side because McGrath was getting him earlier.

He didn't face your dad by the end of his career.

Yeah, I loved playing against you.

You got a few as well.

You got Londred against your dad.

I love playing against your old man.

It's why you play the game.

You're 20-odd yards away and you've got this blonde-haired, zinced Australian with flared trousers, you know, weight going in different directions in various Ashes series.

Yes.

sledging you he wouldn't say anything yeah and you think oh Shane's gonna let me off today and you'd get up his end he'd say Nass I've got you 22 times in your career mate or something it was the absolute if you got runs against Shane yeah it was the best thing you could do but also he would be and I know it's a cliche but he literally would be there at the end of the day first person shake your hand well played that was that was pretty good and then he'd get you out again say

The one thing we haven't spoken about is his batting.

He loved his batting but obviously what we've got here, I think that's the helmet he was wearing at Perth when he got out to Daniel Vettori on the 99.

He enjoyed his batting?

One difficult question for you.

What do you think your dad, as a cricketer, would want to be remembered as and by?

What was his proudest achievement or the way he played the game?

What was he proud of?

Thanks for listening to the Sky Cricket Podcast.

If you found us during the ashes, we're here more or less every week throughout the year.

So if you can stand Ath and I in your ears, then make sure you give this show a follow wherever you listen to your pods so that you don't miss out.
