    May 28 2025

    One of our great Australian characters in full flight!

    From delivering pizzas in a 1971 Datsun to making double tons, Jason Gillespie has done it all—and then some. Dizzy opens up on that iconic nickname, his current obsession with pan-fried veggie dumplings, and his love of old-school wrestling and Bernard Fanning.

    He shares wisdom from his late father, pays tribute to Malcolm Marshall, and lets us in on jaw-dropping moments with Hugh Jackman inside the Lord’s changerooms. Plus: the hardest batters he bowled to, the bowlers who made him sweat, plus, a nice plug for that unforgettable double century.
