About David Sincock

Born 1942. David Sincock is an Australian cricketer.

David John Sincock (born 1 February 1942) is a former Australian cricketer who played in three Test matches from 1964 to 1966.

Nicknamed "Evil Dick" by his teammates, Sincock was called "one of the most interesting bowlers I have ever played against" by Garry Sobers, who claimed that Sincock turned the ball more than any other bowler he had faced and had an unreadable googly. However, Sobers noted that Sincock was too inconsistent, bowling an over of long hops and full tosses for every unplayable delivery. He later said, "I definitely didn't want to be a professional sportsman ... Once I'd got a guy out I couldn't really see the point in getting him out again next week." He became a successful business executive.
