Top 10 players of all time from South Australia

#9 Vic Richardson

Vic Richardson

The grandfather of famed Chappell brothers of Australian cricket, Vic Richardson was one of Australia's best batsmen in the late 1920s and early to mid-1930s. He had also been the captain of the national team and during the course of a two-decade-long career for South Australia, he became one of the best batsmen to have ever played for the state.

Richardson was a stroke player par excellence and believed in dominating the opposition as much as possible. In his first-class career for South Australia, he played in 77 games and scored 6027 runs at an average of 43.55. Richardson is 9th among the all-time list of run scorers for South Australia and certainly, one of the finest in its history.
