He found his form at Melbourne when in a match against Victoria he scored 158. In a shared series, he scored two centuries including the fastest of the year (122 balls in the final Test at Melbourne). With his intense concentration, he was finding touring very tiring and he was allowed to leave the tour before the New Zealand section. Own Team O M R W Opp Ct Total Total 439.
