Eye Of The Tiger

Roar of the Lion.
Hair of the Echidna.
But what's with the eye piercing?
Imagine how good Dennis Lillee would have been if only he had a tongue stud!

Blast From the Past

It's 1975, Dennis Lillee is bowling very short, and very very fast. 

The only protection you have is good eye sight, a piece of willow and a toweling floppy hat.

Bring Back The 'tashe

All fashion is cyclic.
It is time to reinvent facial hair.
Hairy men bowl the ball faster and hit it further - it is a known fact.
If the IPL really still feel threatened by any one else they need only insist on facial hair for all players to put bums on seats
Fast, hairy bowlers now!
Chris Martin is injured - reason? - not enough hair.
