ADAM DALE STANDS DOWN Former Australian player Adam Dale retired from first-class cricket in April, after being plagued by injuries late in his career. The 34-year-old took six wickets in two Tests for Australia against India in Bangalore in 1997-98 and the West Indies in St John's in 1998-99. The only Queenslander in the victorious 1999 World Cup squad, Dale played 30 one-day internationals after making his debut on the 1996-97 tour of South Africa, finishing his national limited-overs career with 32 wickets at 30.59. He also toured South Africa (1997), New Zealand (1997-98), India (1998), United Arab Emirates (1998), the West Indies (1999), England (1999), Sri Lanka (1999) and Zimbabwe (1999). At domestic level, Dale was an outstanding contributor to the Queensland Bulls, capturing 245 first-class career wickets at the average of 20.76 after making his debut for Queensland in 1996-97. He was a member of the Bulls side that won the 1996-97 Sheffield Shield, the 1999-2000 Pura Cup, the 2000-2001 Pura Cup and the 1995-96 Mercantile Mutual Cup championship. A popular clubman, he twice won the Peter Burge Medal for the best and fairest Queensland first-grade player. SHANE LEE SAYS GOODBYE Former Australian one-day international all-rounder and New South Wales captain Shane Lee announced his retirement from the game in April. Lee came to the decision following a persistent knee injury that hampered much of his 2002-03 season. After making his domestic debut in 1992-93, Lee played 93 first-class matches for New South Wales, scoring 5071 runs and capturing 150 wickets. He captained the Blues on 13 occasions in the four-day game. He also made a state record 59 limited-over appearances for the state, and led the side in 14 matches. At the international level he represented Australia in 45 one-day internationals and was a member of the triumphant 1999 World Cup squad. His all-round ability and cool approach on the limited-overs stage saw him score 477 runs and take 48 wickets for Australia. Lee will now concentrate on his business interests, as he forges a career in talent management. 53 The accurate one. Adam Dale ended a decorated career in April that included Test representation and a place in the 1999 World Cup squad. Former Australian and New South Wales all-rounder Shane Lee retired from all forms of cricket in April.
Tributes and Milestones Lisa Keightley retired from international cricket after a seven-year career at the highest level. Dr Cam Battersby AM served on the Board of Cricket Australia for 15 years, including managing several Australian teams on overseas tours. LISA KEIGHTLEY RETIRES FROM INTERNATIONAL CRICKET Australian top-order batter Lisa Keightley retired from international cricket in December, after a seven-year career at the highest level. One of Australia’s most accomplished female players, Keightley played seven Tests for Australia, scoring 362 runs at an average of 36.20 after making her debut against New Zealand at Wanganui in 1994-95. An Australian representative in 54 one-day internationals, she is the country’s third highest run-scorer in the limited-overs game with 1827 runs at 44.56. One of Keightley’s most notable achievements came in 1998 against England at Lord’s, when she scored the first century (113*) by a female player at the historic ground. She also holds the second highest one-day international score for Australia (156*) behind Belinda Clark’s world record 229*. Keightley is continuing her cricket career, at state domestic level with New South Wales in the Women’s National Cricket League. DR CAM BATTERSBY AM In August 2002, long-serving Cricket Australia Director Dr Cam Battersby completed his 15th and final year on the Board. He was replaced by former Australian captain and Queensland Cricket Director, Allan Border. Joining the Board of Queensland Cricket in 1991, Dr Battersby later became the Chair of the state association for seven years from 1993 to 2000. During his tenure on the Cricket Australia Board, he worked tirelessly on numerous committees across a range of cricket areas including development, umpiring and women’s cricket. Away from the boardroom, he was involved in several other duties including Australian team manager on tours to New Zealand (1990), Sri Lanka (1992), South Africa (1994), Sri Lanka and India (1996) and India again in 1998. Dr Battersby entered the private practice of medicine in 1977 and during his career worked as a lecturer in anatomy at the University of Queensland and surgery at Royal Brisbane Hospital, and was also a Senior Lecturer and Reader in Surgery at the University of Queensland. A Director of the Australia-India Council, he has a demonstrated commitment and passion to developing the game broadly. He was made a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) for his contribution to medicine as a surgeon and his service to cricket administration in June 2000. In other changes at board level, Tony Harrison replaced Denis Rogers AO as the Tasmanian-elected Director in October 2002. 54
