  • Gary Gilmour passed away at aged 62

    Gary Gilmour, the fast bowler who played 15 Tests for Australia and famously demolished England in the 1975 World Cup semi-final, has died at the age of 62. Gilmour, who had undergone a life-saving liver transplant in 2005, had battled health problems for many years. He died at Sydney's Royal Prince Alfred Hospital.

    Gilmour's international career consisted of 20 matches across the two formats and was finished by the time he was 25, but it was an eventful career. His remarkable 6 for 14 in the World Cup semi-final against England at Headingley in June 1975 was listed by Wisden in 2002 as the greatest bowling performance in ODI history.
