SYNDEY: Cricket Australia on Wednesday paid tribute to Test all-rounder Keith Stackpole, who has died aged 84.
A powerful right-handed batsman who could bowl leg-spin, Stackpole played 43 Tests between 1966 and 1974, famously scoring 207 against England at the Gabba in Brisbane during the 1970-71 Ashes series. Stackpole, who passed away on Tuesday, was top scorer in the 1972 Ashes in England, hitting 485 runs at an average of 54 as the series was drawn 2-2.
