 Barry Knight was a big-hitting all rounder who enjoyed thumping county sides and weak Test attacks like India and New Zealand, but struggled against Australia.Fred Titmus had proved to be a real find in 1962–63, and improved upon his reputation, making three 50s in the series and averaging 64.50 even though he batted a number 9.He took guard outside the leg-stump, giving the bowler a clean view of the wicket, but moved over quickly and batted solidly.
