		Eric Hollies has an assured place in cricket history: as the party pooper of all time.
		Whatever the truth, Hollies was always my schoolboy hero: not so much because of his deeds for England as for the way he played cricket for Warwickshire.
		Long before Shane Warne was born, Hollies showed that a leggie could combine devastating accuracy with guile: astonishing to think that in a long, war-interrupted career that lasted from 1932 to 1957 Hollies conceded only 2.23 runs an over.

		It was a great enough distinction to have bowled Don Bradman for a duck in his final Test innings, yet to remember Eric Hollies for that alone would be like seeing Chaplin as no more than a tramp who once made a dramatic meal of a boot.
		William Eric Hollies, who was born at Old Hill, Staffs on June 5, 1912 and died on April 17, 1981, aged 68, served Warwickshire from 1932 until 1957, by which time his steady legspinners and topspinners, with the occasional googly, had claimed 2201 wickets for the county, and 2323 in all first-class cricket.
		In 1955 Hollies was chosen as one of Wisden's Cricketers of the Year, and in his final season, 1957, when he captained Warwickshire, he bowled more overs, 1175, than anyone else in the Championship, and exercised such a spell over the Leicestershire batsmen that 78 consecutive balls went unscored-from.

		The moody and troublesome Eric Haydock was fired in April 1966 and was replaced by Hick's former colleague in the Dolphins, Bernie Calvert.
		The Hollies were quick to join the 'flower power' bandwagon, as a more progressive feel had already pervaded their recent album, 'For Certain Because', but with 'Evolution', their beads and kaftans were everywhere.
		Following this, the Hollies went back to the oldies path until, in 1988, a television beer commercial used 'He Ain't Heavy', and once again they were at the top of the charts for the first time in over a dozen years.

		It is possible that at the time Eric Hollies' perfectly pitched googly spun through the gate and hit the great man's castle at the Oval on August 14, 1948, few people realised the full significance of what had happened.
		Hollies played just 13 Tests and gathered 44 wickets for England, but his place in history was assured on this day.
		Many who were there, including Hollies himself, believed that Bradman had tears in his eyes after the crowd's reception, and that affected the way he played.

		On the occasion of his last international innings, Bradman needed four runs to be able to retire with a batting average of 100, but was dismissed for nought (in cricketing parlance, "a duck") by spin bowler Eric Hollies.
		Applauded onto the pitch by both teams, it was sometimes claimed that he was unable to see the ball due to the tears welling in his eyes, a claim Bradman always dismissed as sentimental nonsense.
