Dwayne Paisley is a Life Member of St Andrew Cricket Club.

Over 23 years and still playing today Dwayne has been a dedicated and loyal servant to the club as a player, captain, coach and sponsor.

He is a premiership winning First XI captain with a strong focus of the development of the younger players through the grades.

Dwayne has played over 250 First XI games for the club, scored in excess of 7,500 runs and taken over 200 wickets.

Who was the best captain you had the good fortune to play with?

Greg Moorhouse, he was as tough as they come. He valued his wicket higher than he valued his life. He knew how to push guys to their limits and you just had to do everything you could to win to make him happy. He was hard but exactly what is needed.

Gregory Stephen Chappell is one of the greats of Australian cricket with his playing record speaking for itself. He has also made a significant impact off the field since calling stumps on his playing career.

In this edition of the Cricket Library Podcast, we hear from Greg about the origins of his passion for the game, breaking into First Class cricket & the crucial batting tip he received from Sir Donald Bradman.

Greg also shares about his epiphany moment sitting in his motel room reflecting on a letter from his father whilst playing against a World XI in Tasmania. His realisation lead to a shift in mindset that was followed by a run of big scores for Australia.

We take a closer look at his 247 not out against NZ in 1974 where he and brother Ian both made centuries in each innings of the game.

John Di Bartolo – Tribute

With pleasure we are able to reflect on the wonderful playing career of Johnny Di Bartolo, Blacktown first grade player number 127.

In full flight Johnny struck fear into opposition teams across the competition and can best described as dominant, destructive and game changing. As an opening batsman Johnny set the tone early in each innings, grabbing the momentum and ascendency for his side, that more often than not proved decisive in the final result.

In the twilight years of Johnny’s first grade career, we were fortunate to have his leadership, experience, and guidance, developing the next generation of aspiring cricketers at the Blacktown Warriors

Five things we learned from Round 4 - NSW Premier Cricket 2023-24

Tim Cummins isn’t keeping wicket for Sydney University just now, while he recovers from recent eye surgery. He’s still seeing the ball well enough, though, as he’s made his best start to the season with the bat for a few years. University lost two very early wickets against Fairfield, but a bright stand between Damien Mortimer and Ryan McElduff had steadied the innings. Cummins went to the crease when Mortimer, who made a fluent 49, nicked the first ball of the second session. Cummins was quickly in stride, driving Jaydyn Simmons past cover for 4, then using his feet well to attack left-arm spinner Cameron Frendo. Frendo, an Australian Under-19 representative, is certainly a promising talent, but at the moment his length is a touch mechanical, and Cummins went deep into his crease to cut and pull deliveries that were barely fractionally short.

With the ACT’s return to the Toyota National 2nd XI competition a little over a week away, Premier Cricket performances are becoming important not just for weight of numbers, but for their timing as well.

Weston Creek Molonglo top order bat Zak Keogh’s star continues to rise, with a well-made 123-ball innings of 109 against Tuggeranong at Stirling notable for the comfort with which he reached three figures.

Keogh batted superbly through the second session to bring up his first century of the summer and pushed the ‘Creek to 254 where they were bowled out in the 59th over. Daniel Oshyer was the chief destroyer with 5-39 from 15 overs for Tuggeranong, who finished the day 3-91 from 37 overs.

At ANU North, WA import and promising allrounder Lachie Simpson posted his first ton in Canberra, finishing unbeaten on 159 and helping the Students reach 289 against Queanbeyan.

Between us, Malcolm Marshall and I played 81 Tests, took 376 Test wickets and won a First Grade Premiership together for Waverley in the Sydney Grade Competition in 1991-1992.

At the beginning of that 1991-1992 season, my goals were to try and force my way into the First Grade side, have fun and have a bit of success along the way. Standard summer goals really.

By the end of the season, we’d won a premiership and I opened the bowling with someone that many have described as the greatest and most feared fast bowler of all time, Malcolm Marshall. What a summer!

Randwick Petersham Cricket Club

In the cricket season of 1973-74, Graham Errington indicated in no uncertain manner that he was a wicket-keeper out of the top drawer, by breaking a club record on debut in Randwick’s 1st Grade team. And to perform that feat and make that debut, he had a meteoric transition from 4th Grade to 1sts­–all in a six month period and all before he was 21!

Graham John Errington was born at Sydney on 27 July 1953 and educated at Sydney Boys High where he played cricket in the GPS competition. In 1967-68, he played for Combined Associated Schools (CAS) in the A W Green Shield competition after the NSW Cricket Association had approved the entry of such a team. The couple of games he had in the side whetted his appetite, and the following season he joined the Balmain Green Shield team where he played the season. That led to him making his Grade Cricket debut in Balmain’s 1972-73 4th Grade.

Ask any Queensland cricket fan of a certain age and they will tell you that Carl Rackemann took the catch that ended the 1994/95 Sheffield Shield final. They may or may not recall that left arm spinner Paul Jackson bowled the ball that sealed Queensland's first ever Sheffield Shield and having known Jacko for 30 years think that may be the way he prefers it. Whilst comfortable out of the limelight, Jackson was always determined to contribute to his teams' successes on and off the field but it would be wrong to call him quiet as anyone who has had (or tried to have) a cricket conversation with him would attest.
