I was walking towards the 3Ws stand before the start of play and I walked pass Macco...nodded in recognition and kept moving. What has always stuck in my mind about this occasion was how small Macco was. Lightly built and no taller than me. It was amazing that this man was a tearway fast bowler. He was indeed a special design, not just physically but also one of the smartest cricketers of his time.
