Fast bowlers do not come any better, quicker or more competitive than Australia's finest, Dennis Lillee. This puny, shy boy from the outskirts of Perth in Western Australia became the scourge of batsmen all over the world - especially those who wore the Three Lions on their cap - blasting his way past the defences of so many batsmen in 13 rollicking years of Test cricket before his retirement in 1984 brought a collective sigh of relief.

It was not only a relief to the batting population of the world, but also to the game's administrators. For DK Lillee, lovingly known as FOT by his team-mates, was a fiery rebel who not only spoke his mind but carried out the actions, too. There was a physical tussle with Javed Miandad in Perth; the aluminum bat-throwing incident and his collusion with Kerry Packer and World Series Cricket.

But his huge commitment to the game and, in particular, to Australia cannot be questioned, as he has continued working in cricket since his retirement, developing a hugely successful school for fast bowlers in India.

Poacher turned gamekeeper? Think again. In his autobiography, the fearsome Lillee holds nothing back, with plenty of short balls where he believes they are needed, tempered by a lot of common sense. His controversial views and suggestions for the future of the game are essential reading.

DKL remains as entertaining, controversial and as dangerous as he ever was when lining up a Pom in his sights.
