Rob, do you have the video where Hogg hits Richards on the head, and he hits the next ball for six? I have seen multiple references to it, but have never seen the clip itself.

@ghabcdef been trying for years to get it, ch 9 doesn't have ANY footage from test anymore, it was all lost. thats the ONLY test they don't have since they started televising cricket.

Nobody, but nobody plays a shot like that these days, No effort whatsoever, no baseball-like swing, and the bats were not as prepared as they are now.

[robelinda2]

@immortalpop Thats Viv, bloody legend. Screw these T20 assholes today, its sickening.

[Radius1986]

Is Rodney Hogg related to Brad Hogg?

[littleausindfockers]

@robelinda2 Its somewhere in the movie "fire in babylon" 

[subroto81]

@robelinda2 and a lot of people say that the pitches in the 70=80s were slower and less sporty than those of today so batsmen back then had to face balls slower than todays batsmen. But also thats why bowlers nowadays clock higher speeds on their bowling.

@robelinda2 pure genius !!

[StickmanH]

Hogg reminds me of Peter Siddle
