Famous Cricketers No 79 - Richard Hadlee

who finished with 6 for 51, changed all that as the tourists lost their last eight wickets for just 33 runs! This game ended in nerve-racking fashion as Jeremy Coney (111*) and Ewen Chatfield (21*) put on 50 to win the match, knowing that only Lance Cairns, who had been hit on the head earlier in the innings by a bouncer, was still to bat. This summer was another successful one for Hadlee and during the season he reached a great landmark in his career when he became only the second New Zealand-born player, after Clarrie Grimmett, to take 1,000 wickets in first-class cricket.
