Sir Richard Hadlee is a former New Zealand cricketer widely regarded as one of the greatest all-rounders in cricket history.
Born on July 3, 1951, in Christchurch, New Zealand, Hadlee enjoyed a stellar international career spanning from 1973 to 1990. Renowned for his remarkable ability to swing and seam the ball, Hadlee played a pivotal role in shaping New Zealand cricket during the 1970s and 1980s. His remarkable achievements include becoming the first player to take 400 Test wickets and being the highest wicket-taker in Test cricket at the time of his retirement.
Knighted for his services to cricket in 1990, Sir Richard Hadlee's legacy endures as an icon of New Zealand cricket and a symbol of excellence in fast bowling.
