 Colin Cowdrey was also used as an occasional opener and he and Pullar added 290 for the first wicket against South Africa in 1960.A classic strokemaker whose perfect timing was a great asset on hard Australian wickets he made three successive ducks at the start of the tour, but made 307 against South Australia, his highest first class score and the highest innings for the MCC in Australia.Tom Graveney was another stylist, but had the unfortunate reputation of only making runs when the going was good.
