A true cricket legend, Doug represented Australia in 74 Test matches scoring 5,357 runs along the way with a top score of 250 runs.
He made his first class debut at the tender age of 17 and went from strength to strength to represent Australia only two years later against England. In what should have been a nerve-racking Test debut for Doug, he was incredible, smashing his second delivery for four runs en-route to an astounding 155. Another century followed in the next Test.
A great man to have a chat and a beer with or simply to share the passion of horse racing.
