00:00In the first test at Rawalpindi in October 1998, Ian Healy delivered a gritty and determined
00:05knock that proved vital in setting up a commanding Australian victory.
00:10Coming in at number 7, Ian Healy stood firm against a challenging Pakistani bowling attack
00:15and crafted a crucial innings of 82 runs.
00:18He occupied the crease for 242 minutes, faced 197 deliveries and struck 6 boundaries, maintaining
00:25a strike rate of 41.62.
00:28It was a classic wicketkeeper's knock, resalute patience and full of character.
00:32His contribution was instrumental in pushing Australia to a massive first innings total,
00:37laying the foundation for a dominant win by an innings and 99 runs.
00:42Let's rewind the clock and relive Ian Healy's invaluable innings against Pakistan.
00:47Healy will go back for the second as the Sam has to move a couple of yards to the run.
01:01Still coming for Australia, spite of losing Steve Waugh.
01:06That was the left of driving Azhar Mahmood.
01:10The ball, he's got a hand to it but I think it will get to the ropes and crosses it now.
01:15So that's 4 to Healy and Healy too to his tradition, playing with aggressive strokes.
01:20Aggressive strokes as soon as soon as he came right in line with the ball and Azhar Mahmood made effort but couldn't stop it.
01:36367.5 now.
01:38367.5 now.
01:43Driven and fast Army Sohail and the Ma'am giving it a chase.
01:51Two more to the Australian total, then move on to 373.
01:55Novakya is taking the lead building up.
01:56Heal?
01:57Heal?
01:584.
01:59151.
02:00This is the fastest of sport.
02:01Batshe.
02:02Darren.
02:03301.
02:04The second is the fastest of sport.
02:05Sohail Khan was in this position and then stepped out for a second.
02:09Sohail Khan was in this position, he was in the position of the champion.
02:16The first is the most likely step.
02:21His first is the best ever.
02:24He goes back, in the middle of the bed,
02:28He goes back to the middle of the bed.
02:32And that's the good catch.
02:36Healy gets a life.
02:40But it was a very fine attempt at the same time.
02:44Yes, it was fairly far from him. It would have been a brilliant catch,
02:48but a catch all the same. Fully struck.
02:52And this one outside the off stump.
02:58The ball will cross the ropes.
03:00It is out. Four more runs through.
03:02Australia, four by. It's a signal by Joel Akhtar.
03:06It was a wild delivery.
03:08A rugby ball set off. It was far away,
03:12although the batter did try to nibble at it,
03:14but it was out of his reach.
03:16It's pretty wide there.
03:18And Mohin, of course, trying his best.
03:20He's right in front of Mohin when he's about to collect it.
03:24It was a bad ball.
03:26Four hundred and forty-nine.
03:28The first time I know.
03:30Thank you, Mr.
03:32I'm so proud of you.
03:34I'm so proud of you.
03:36I'm so proud of you.
03:38I'm so proud of you.
03:40I'm so proud of you.
03:42But.
03:44It's a tough task.
03:46God is not the same.
03:49God is the same.
03:52God is the same.
03:54The Muslim church has a sign.
03:58God has been dragged.
04:00God is the same.
04:03God is the same.
04:05God is the same.
04:08God is the same.
04:11God is the same.
04:13I am the only person who is in the middle of the town, and here is a good place.
04:24The city has all been the same as the city, and I hope you have a good place.
04:32There is a good place to see the city of the city.
04:37In the golden era of Australian cricket, Ian Hill stood tall, not just behind the
05:07stumps, but with the bat in hand as well, a fierce competitor and a heartbeat of Aussie's
05:13side.
05:14Through the late 1980s and 1990s, Healy carved out a test carrier that blends great with
05:20quite brilliance.
05:21In 119 tests, he tallied 4,356 hard-earned runs, at an average of 27.39.
05:29Numbers that not might leap off the page, but for a wicketkeeper battling in the trenches
05:35of the lower order, they tell a story of resilience.
05:38He brought up four centuries and 2250s, with a carrier best of 161 not-out, a knock shocked
05:44in defiance against the West Indies.
05:46When Australia toured Pakistan, Ian Hilley's metal shone through, especially in Rawalpindi
05:51in 1998, where his 82 of 197 deliveries was a masterclass in patience and poise, laying
05:58the groundwork for a crushing innings victory.
06:01That Ian Hilley was not just a best man, he was the iron glove of the baggy green, snagging
06:07366 catches and whipping off 29 stumpings for a then-record 395 test dismissals.
06:14He was the quiet enforcer, the behind-the-scenes warrior, and the man who gave Australia both
06:20backbone and balance in an era of rising dominance.
06:50of the
06:57186 times, he was the one who gave Australia to the house of the Kings.
06:58He was the light of the ring, and the man who gave Australia to the house ofbia.
07:04He was the one of these Devastations, as he was never surprised to see them, and the man who
07:08was the one who gave Australia before the ship.
