The stocky, redheaded Cosier was an aggressive middle-order batsman who often attacked the bowling when a more judicious method was the order of the day. Given an extended trial at international level over four seasons, he never really established himself as a Test batsman, although he was vice-captain of Australia for a brief period. He had two major highlights at Test level – a swashbuckling (if lucky) hundred on Test debut at Melbourne against the West Indies in 1975-76, and a brutal 168 against Pakistan the following season. Test bowlers were quick to exploit his technical deficiencies, in particular a very short backlift and abbreviated footwork. Cosier was all brute force with little finesse, but he did try to modify his technique somewhat during the 1978-79 Ashes series, when he was incongruously used as an opener.

Is a former Australian cricketer who played in 15 Tests and 5 ODIs from 1973 to 1977. At the peak of his career, Gilmour combined spectacular, free-hitting batting with penetrative left-arm swing bowling and the ability to hang on to a blinding catch in the slips cordon. From the start of his first class career, he earned comparisons with the great Alan Davidson, who was also a product of New South Wales' central coast. A score of 122 on his debut for New South Wales in January 1972, first caught the eye of the Australian selectors, who weren't afraid to blood him at age 22 during an "experimental" season. Gilmour's Test debut consisted of 52 runs and 4 for 75 in a big win over New Zealand at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. However, he only appeared in two of the next five Tests, as Australia rotated through a number of players with an eye on the Ashes series later in the year. Gilmour gave them something to ponder with seven wickets in a Test at Auckland, which included 5 for 64 in the first innings to set up a series-tying victory. Competition for fast bowling places in the Australian team was intense at this time. Gilmour wasn't selected for the 1974-75 Ashes series, but reappeared in green and gold when selected for the 1975 England tour, which included the inaugural World Cup. The Australians, inexperienced at one-day cricket, adopted a casual yet aggressive approach, often employing a full slips cordon for their opening bowlers. Gilmour was twelfth man in the early stages of the tournament, but selected for the semi final against England at Headingley.
