Robert John Inverarity MBE (born 31 January 1944) is a former Australian cricketer who played six Test matches.[1] A right-handed batsman and left-arm orthodox spin bowler in his playing career, Inverarity was also one of the enduring captains in the Australian Sheffield Shield during the late 1970s and early 1980s, captaining both Western Australia and South Australia.

Inverarity was chairman of selectors for Cricket Australia from 2011 to 2014.[2]

Cricket career overview

He played in six Tests between 1968 and 1972 and played first class cricket for Western Australia, South Australia and Australia over a period of twenty-three years between 1962 and 1985.[3] As a state player, he captained Western Australia to Sheffield Shield glory four times in five years. When his teaching career took him to Adelaide his new team of South Australia went on to win the Shield in 1981–82. Batting at the Adelaide Oval he was involved in one of the most unusual "dismissals" in cricket history. After being clean-bowled for a duck by Greg Chappell – the ball deviating in mid-air – he was recalled to bat by umpire Colin Egar who signalled dead-ball, literally; the ball had deflected off a now-deceased unlucky local sparrow. [1] After retiring from cricket in 1985 (aged 41) he continued teaching, before going into coaching on the English county scene with Kent and Warwickshire.

The Inverarity Stand (centre-left) at the WACA Ground

To recognise his contribution to the state team, the Western Australian Cricket Association named a stand at the WACA cricket ground in his honour. The stand, built in 1970 for the WACA's inaugural Test and initially named the "Test Stand", was later renamed to the "Inverarity-Western Underwriters Stand".

In 2011, Inverarity was named as the new full-time chairman of selectors for Cricket Australia, beating a high-profile field including Geoff Lawson, Tom Moody, Rod Marsh and chairman Trevor Hohns.

Teaching

Inverarity began his career as a teacher during the twilight years of his cricketing career. He taught at various prestigious independent schools (including stints at Tonbridge School and King's College School in the United Kingdom[4]) and also served as Vice-Principal at Pembroke School (1981–1988) in Adelaide and Guildford Grammar School, and Headmaster of Hale School (1989–2003) in Perth.[5] In 2001, the new music and drama centre at Hale was named in his honour – The John Inverarity Music and Drama Centre. In 2006, he appointed warden of St George's College, a residential college of the University of Western Australia.[5] He was also appointed as a member of the University Senate by the Governor Ken Michael.

Family

His father was Merv Inverarity, a Western Australian first-class cricketer during the 1930s and '40s and later senior administrator within the Western Australian Cricket Association.

Inverarity's daughter Alison Inverarity was an Olympic high jumper, representing Australia at the 1992, 1996 and 2000 Summer Olympics.

In 1967–68 Inverarity made 779 runs at 59.92 and took 4 wickets. Highlights included 82 against Victoria.[9] This consistent form led to his selection on the 1968 Ashes.[10]

Test player

In England Inverarity impressed batting nearly four hours in a tour game against Leicestershire to make 67.[11] Other efforts included 70 against Northamptonshire[12] Inverarity was made 12th man for the first test.[13] He made his test debut in the fourth test, when Bill Lawry was injured. He scored 8 and 34 in a drawn game that ensured Australia kept the Ashes. (His first scoring shot was a boundary).[14]

Inverarity kept his spot for the fifth test at the Oval. In the first innings he scored 1 in the first innings, then played his most famous test match innings: 56 off 253 balls, failing to save the game.[15][16] On the tour overall he scored 645 runs at 24.80 and took two wickets.

In 1968–69 Inverarity player the first test against the West Indies but was then dropped in favour of Doug Walters.[17] He made 660 first class runs that summer at 44.00 and took two wickets. A score of 159 against NSW was his 11th first class century and fourth century that summer.[18] He also made 103 against NSW.[19]

Inverarity was not picked on the Australian team to tour India and South Africa in 1969-70. Playing at home he made 377 runs at 31.41 and took no wickets. In one Shield game he was nearly dismissed by a bird.[20]

In 1970–71 Inverarity scored 810 runs at 54.00 and took 9 wickets at 39.8, but was unable to force his way into the test team.

Test recall

In 1971–72 Inverarity scored 742 runs at 41.22 and took 13 wickets at 33. That summer he replaced Ian Redpath as Australia's vice captain against the World XI, although he missed some matches due to injury.[25][26]

He was selected on the 1972 ashes. In England in 1972 he scored 553 runs at 26.33 and took 37 wickets at 26.5. A highlight was a dogged innings of 67 against Leicestershire.[27]

In 1972–73 Inverarity made 380 runs at 34.54 and took 7 wickets at 31.

In 1973–74 he made 681 runs at 48.64 and took one wicket.

In 1975–76 he made 93 runs at 15.50. He went to work in England in 1976-7, teaching at Tunbridge School, Kent.

World Series Cricket

Inverarity returned to Australia for the beginning of the 1977–77 season, resuming his captaincy of West Australia. There was some talk that Inverarity might be recalled to the Australian team to captain, but this subsided when Bob Simpson elected to return to test cricket.

That season Inverarity scored 470 runs at 33.57 and took 12 wickets at 19.6. He also led WA to another Sheffield Shield victory.

Simpson led Australia on the 1978 tour of the West Indies, after which he retired. At the beginning of the 1978–79 summer there was press speculation again that Inverarity would be selected in the test side, and he scored 187 in a Shield game at the beginning of the summer. However he was overlooked; Graham Yallop led Australia to a 5–1 defeat against England. Inverarity scored 510 runs at 51.00 and took five wickets.

World Series Cricket players returned to the WA side in 1979–80. Inverarity made 365 runs at 26.07 and took five wickets.

In 1980–81 he scored 321 runs at 26.75 and took three wickets.

South Australia

In 1981–82 Inverarity moved to South Australia where he made 348 runs at 38.66 and took 30 wickets at 21.3. That summer he scored his first century in three seasons, against Queensland.[28]

In 1982–83 he made 698 runs at 43.62 and took 19 wickets at 38.

In 1983–84 he made 419 runs at 41.90 and took 18 wickets at 49.5.

In 1984–85 Inverarity made 363 runs at 25.92 and took a career best 43 wickets at 23.6. In one of this last games he took 5–57 against Queensland. He said:

I may be getting the wickets but my legs tell me it's time to quit. I made the decision to play until the end of this season and I'm content to live with that. I'll stick by that decision no matter what happens over the next two days... I think people who retire because they're playing badly and likely to get dropped are copping out. If you're good enough you get picked and if you're not you don't. I've always been prepared to throw my hat in the ring and take that risk."[29]

Coach

In 2003 he was director of coaching at Warwickshire and kept the position for three years. They won the 2004 championship.[30] He later said of the team "They played very determined cricket, game after game. They kept the pressure on for four days. It was a reward for application and bowling persistently, patiently, and for the batsmen it was about enduring the difficult periods and making hay when things got better."[31]

Selector

Inverarity served as Australian cricket selector from 2011 to 2014. He was replaced as chairman by Rod Marsh.[32]
