"It was a remarkable delivery. There are people who think I should have padded it away but I never tried to lunge at a spinner. had most of it covered and had ensured it would not get round the back of my legs and if it did anything else, I was in the right position to react, but it spun quickly as well as a long way. It was a leg break and I knew he had put a lot of revs on it and we knew the wicket might turn, but not that much". - Mike Getting
‘It was a magnificent delivery. It obviously turns a long way but the key to it was the way it dipped so quickly and pitched on such a great line just outside leg stump. As soon as he bowled it, I turned to him and said, “Shane, you will put your name in the record books”. By God, he didn’t half do that!’. - Dickie Bird
