Never saw him 'live' and everything style and action wise appeared wrong,but like a few decent mix and match Botham/Hadlee/Dev/Khan/Sobers. Surely you just have to sit back and admire ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9WKSiG4qdA

Field placings for a limited overs game from another era, slips, gully, silly mid off and short square leg.

Without the test ban on South Africa, Procter's status in the game would have been even higher

Brilliant Curvy run in I seem to recall

I was at Old Trafford when the famous twilight game was played in the mid-1970s. Pretty sure he started his bowling run from the boundary rope. A class act.

He seems a bit slimmer in the clip in the opening post than I remember....thought he carried more than a few extra pounds?

Saw him a few times and he was a brilliant all-rounder. The 73 Gillette Cup Final between Sussex and Glos was billed as a showdown between him and Tony Greig and there was no doubt who won that.

This - Proctor was a fantastic allrounder. Bowled off the 'wrong foot' too.

I saw him live a few times. Terrifyingly quick.
