A Great Question


From the BBC's Stump the Bearded Wonder Feature:

Lionel Rajapakse, Sri Lanka
Was there any occasion in a Test match between England and Australia when Lillee was caught in the gully by Willey off Dilley?


There was indeed and I was fortunate enough to be scoring for TMS at the WACA in Perth when it happened at 4.08pm on 18 December 1979, the fourth day of the first Anglo-Australian Test since the Packer schism. Dennis Lillee had scored 19 off his previous 104 balls in 135 minutes when he fended a short delivery from Graham Dilley to Peter Willey at close gully.
