Gilly was a good bloke.

In a recent twenty-20 match against New Zealand, he was so nice and entertaining with the player field mics as the action was going on. I wished they had continued with him and packed the commentators for an early dinner. Welcome Keasty… you are right on the spokesperson aspect.

I think this is where the high standards of great keepers from Australia like Healy, Marsh etc, came into play.

What a beaut bloke. I also appreciated the fact that he was often the delegated spokesperson for the team. I know he will miss the team big time, just as they will miss him. BUT.... life goes on.

He started the trend of a wicket-keeper batsmen, unfortunately, it became bastardised and now there are more batsmen wicketkeepers (Prior,Dhoni,Parthiv Patel,Kaarthick,Akmal,you name it)than wicket keepers.
