Big Wickets - Westbury TAS




While in Tasmania E and I got to see the BIG Wickets in Wesbury, which has been known for them since 209. It was erected as a memorial for a local cricketer, Jack Badcock. Mr Badcock played test cricket for the Australian team between 1936-2938. He was Tasmania's first test cricketer and the first Tasmanian to score a century in international cricket.

Neither E or I real watch or follow crickets so we didn't really know this or bothered knowing anymore. It was interesting to know this was in memory of someone - which is always a great way to be remembered.
