Australia legend Jeff Thomson, one of the greatest and most feared fast bowlers of all time, will be speaking at the Hampshire Cricket Society at the Romsey Golf Club on Wednesday afternoon, 2pm.
With an unusual slinging action, and an aggressive approach, he was a fearsome sight to batsmen. He will recount stories from his career and iconic partnership with Dennis Lillee that terrorised international batsmen in the 1970s. At his height Thomson was regarded as the quickest bowler of his era and took 200 wickets in 51 Test matches. Now 74, he will share memories from his time at the top of cricket with Hampshire cricket followers.
The event is open to the public at a cost of £10 per head. Lunches and full bar facilities will be available. Please contact HCS secretary John Hooper - [email protected] - to book your seat.
