Dennis Lillee
355 Test wickets and the complete fast bowling manual
Overview
Lillee fought back from a serious back injury that should have ended his career, remaking his action and returning as a master of seam and outswing. He took 355 Test wickets in 70 matches. The aluminium bat incident at Perth in 1979 is part of the legend. He mentored generations of Australian quicks.
