RIP 2021

Sad couple of days for Australian Cricket with these two passing away. Condolences @NTA and other Aussie fans….

I don’t know much about Mallett but Davidson had some amazing stats. Always highly spoken of by the old timers.

RIP to both.

@mn5 Mallett was involved in coaching Vettori.

Those eras are now reaching that stage I guess..

Davidson and Benaud were a couple of bloody handy all rounders by the sounds of it……well, brilliant bowlers who could bat pretty well might be a more accurate deposition given how loose the term “all rounder” is.

You and me both to be honest. There’s a few of that era who I would have no idea off the top of my head.

Dead or Alive?

Use this site to find out if famous people are dead or alive.

It may not be the most accurate... just glanced at their 'People Alive over 85' list and it still has Vera Lynn going at 104...

@donsteppa Yeah just checked and it looks like it hasn't been updated in a while. Congratulations though to Prince Philip alive and well and into his second century. Betty must be pleased....

Haven't looked at the site for quite a while TBH

Well given that they've buried him I expect he's bloody furious.
