 Wally Grout said "Whenever I saw Ken coming to the wicket, I thought the Union Jack was trailing behind him"

Peter Parfitt was a pleasing young Middlsex batsman who had made 585 runs (65.00) and four centuries against India and Pakistan, but who never would never succeed against Australia.John Murray and Alan Smith were both decent wicket-keeper-batsmen, but Smith batted better in this series.Barry Knight was a big-hitting all rounder who enjoyed batting against the states and upcountry teams, but failed in the only Test he played.
