Tony Mann, the legspinning all-rounder from Australia who was only the second nightwatchman to score a Test century, passed away in Perth at the age of 74 after a battle with pancreatic cancer. Mann played four Tests for Australia in which he scored 189 runs and picked up four wickets.
In a 20-year first-class career playing for Western Australia, Mann bagged 200 wickets, including five five-wicket hauls while he scored 2544 runs, with two hundreds and 11 fifties. Mann also played 13 List-A games in which he bagged five wickets and scored 162 runs.
"We are deeply saddened to learn of Tony's passing. Tony was a strong contributor to the local community in Western Australia and Australian Cricket generally. He was an excellent allrounder - a left-hand bat and legspin bowler - through four Tests and 80 first-class matches," Cricket Australia chief executive Kevin Roberts said.
"Many fondly remember him for his feats in the 1977-78 Perth Test against India when he became only the second man to score a century as a nightwatchman. On behalf of the entire Australian cricket family, we send our condolences to Tony's family," he added.
