Former Australian Test Cricketer Bob Cowper

Former Australian Test cricketer Bob Cowper has passed away at the age of 84, Cricket Australia confirmed on Sunday.

Bob Cowper, a left-handed batter known for his calm and composed style at the crease, played 27 Test matches for Australia during the 1960s. His most iconic performance came in 1966 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), where he scored a memorable 307 against England — a feat that became the highlight of his cricketing career.

Following his stint in international cricket, Cowper retired from the game to pursue a professional career in stockbroking and merchant banking.
