Some serious fast-bowling snuff gear in here. Bichel & Harris great. Also: both used a pace-bowling term that was new to me šŸ¤” šŸ‘€ #Ashes

I’ve written many longform pieces over the years. Very few, if any, hit me like this one. Thanks to everyone who spoke to me. Especially Terry O’Connell. cricket.com.au/news/4409516

Nice reaction to this piece today, for a very sad story. I also just heard from the Toombul CC president - they will be holding a minute’s silence for Martin Bedkober before play at Oxenham Park tomorrow.

I started out on this piece wanting to pay tribute to Martin Bedkober. Fifty years after his death, I didn’t think his story had really been told. Then I met Terry O’Connell. Two men. Both very deserving of a voice, which I hope this story gives them. cricket.com.au/news/4409516
