There's a photo of Dk on the front of the 1972 ABC Cricket book, and his action is like nothing I can remember seeing from Lillee, he seems far more front on.Lillee was ferocious pre his back injury.
When he took 8-29 against RoW, that included taking 6-0. He went from 2-29 to 8-29. It was just amazing.
I always think of Lillee at his point of delivery as staring over his left shoulder. Funny they want kids to bowl with a more front on action to lessen the chance of injury yet Lillee, if this picture is anything to go by developed a far more side on action to remedy his injury.
