Framed Matthew Hayden
Matt Hayden exhilerated cricket audiences around the world for over 14 years. His swashbuckling style of batting revolutionised the opening test batting spot virtually telling everyone that it is okay to smash opposition bowlers from the start.
Regardless of what form of the game it was Hayden was merciless on anything pitched up. His straight driving was a sight to behold. Even just short of a length and straight Hados often ending up clearing the pickets as the broad shouldered Queenslander unleashed a flurry.
It was not all smash and crash though. Matty Hayden, perhaps more than any batsman I saw, put real value on his wicket. His steely determination to keep out the most hostile of bowling was evident, especially on the Sth African pitches.
With Hayden’s retirement on 13-01-09 it is fitting that he is honoured. A framed Matthew Hayden action picture would certainly look good in anyone’s den or study. With framed sporting memorabilia a huge craze in Melbourne, and all of Australia for that matter, it is the perfect companion for any cricket loving fan.
