He’s one of Australia’s greatest wicketkeepers and in this Sacked Cricket exclusive, Ian Healy opens up on the untold stories from cricket’s golden era. 

From playing through pain and keeping injuries secret to being denied a hometown Test farewell, Healy reflects on the highs, lows and defining moments of his remarkable career. He shares how Ian Chappell first spotted his potential, what it was like to stand behind the stumps for Shane Warne’s “Ball of the Century,” and why he thinks NRL superstar Reece Walsh and Warne are so similar. 

Healy also reveals his battles against the mighty West Indies, the art of sledging greats like Brian Lara and Sachin Tendulkar, and why he believes we risk overplaying today’s cricketers. And, of course, he tells a stack of stories about Warne — the teammate, the genius, and the mate.
