Not Only, but Also - My Life in Cricket — My Life in Cricket

Disgrifiad Cymraeg / Welsh Description

Enillodd Malcolm Nash anfarwoldeb ym myd y campau gan mai ef oedd yn bowlio pan drawodd y batiwr chwedlonol Garry Sobers ei record byd o chwe chwe rhediad mewn un pelawd yn Abertawe yn 1968. Er mai'r digwyddiad hwnnw a ddygodd iddo enwogrwydd, fel y dywed Malcolm yn yr hunangofiant hwn, nid dyna oedd swm a sylwedd ei yrfa hir a nodedig ar y llain. Dros 200 o luniau du a gwyn.

Disgrifiad Saesneg / English Description

Malcolm Nash achieved sporting immortality as the bowler hit for a world-record six sixes by the legendary batsman Garry Sobers at Swansea in 1968 but, as Malcolm himself notes, although this single over made his name well-known, it should not define his long and distinguished cricketing career. Over 200 black-and-white images.
