Fantastic musician and very funny man too. Was great on The Turtles big hits and then sang back up vocals with some huge names including T-Rex. The younger ones on the forum should You Tube one of The Turtles big hits like Eleanore or She’d Rather Be With Me.

Adam Gilchrist – Australia’s ODI Trailblazer

The legendary wicketkeeper-batsman smashed his way to 9,000 ODI runs in just 253 innings — the fastest by any Australian in history!

Across his glittering career (1996–2008):

9,619 ODI runs at a strike rate of 96+

16 centuries & 55 fifties

472 dismissals behind the stumps

3-time World Cup winner

Fearless at the top, Gilchrist redefined the role of an opener — attacking from ball one and changing the way ODI cricket was played forever.
