Doug Bollinger is the working man's cricketer, so it is no surprise that when the NSW paceman was selected for National honours that it was met with the applause of the SCG faithful. This footage captures the feeling of this monumentous occasion from the perspective of someone in the crowd. Doug is bowling to Graeme Smith the South African captain with Neil McKenzie at the non-strikers end. Australia went on to win this historic Test Match with Bollinger taking 2-53 in the crucial final innings of the Test.

  • @mickjoG as much as he may not be "very smart"? And have a "pathetic" hairpiece, he was still a far better bowler in every series he has played for australia, (except this ashes because of injury), than Siddle, Hilfenhaus, Johnson and Hauritz. And was on an equal with Harris in ODIs. He was great in the domestic for years and somehow Sid got test cap before him. He has performed greatly in the IPL and swings the ball both ways. Mitch has learnt to swing away again...great! Why not drop Sid/Hilf?

  • i was at this test

  • I don't like Doug Bollinger much... I wouldnt totally agree with the arrogant call, (but I can understand it). The guy really isnt very smart, I think there is no place in aussie side for him if Mitchell Johnson is doing well. His hair piece is just pathetic, he should either get a decent one like Ponting, or shave his head completly, I much prefer Nathan Bracken. now thats a superb head of hair!

  • This guy is big in Chennai... Crowd go crazy when he is out there...they got a song written after him..Bollinger...Bollinger.

  • Dougie is a true blue Aussie bloke. Hard working legend!

  • Doug Bollinger arrogant?......go easy on the drugs mate.....and to add to that the man just can't stop taking wickets......7 already in Test vs New Zealand
