Australia legendary cricketers - former opening batting Ian Redpath and World Cup-winning Margaret Jennings - have been inducted to Cricket Australia the Hale of Fame on Monday.
Redpath, 81, was an active part of the Australian Test side during 1960s and 1970s, playing 66 Test matches smashing 8 hundreds and 31 fifties with his best score of 171 against England at Perth in December, 1970.
The right-handed batter also played 5 ODI matches for his national team in a span of 5 years (1971-75).
The latest inductee to Australia's Hall of Fame while talking to CA said: "I loved it. I really did. It was as rewarding as playing sometimes, just to see the development of young fellas."
Jennings, in her playing days, represented Australia women and Victorian women's side as a wicketkeeper-batter.
While accepting the prestigious award, the 73-year-old said to CA: "I'm very pleased. I didn't in my wildest dreams think it was going to happen, so it was a bit of a surprise, but very, very well received."
Debuting in 1972, she represented Australia 8 Tests and 12 ODIs, garnering 462 runs to compile a century and three fifties across both formats. She was also the part of the Australian team, which won the World Cup in 1978 hosted in India.
