yeah, now I think about, I think Hilditch was a guy that would hit a bouncer straight down 3rd mans throat more than just once or twice.I'ii have Boon and Wessels as the openers.
Once the opposition worked out he couldn't handle the short ball that was the end of him..
All our openers had flaws in this era. Just not a fun decade for Australia batting in general, apart from Border.
Hughes at Lord's in Centenary Test and at MCG in Test v West Indies were a few of the batting highlights of the decade that did not have a lot for Aussie batsmen.
