Sydney: Australian cricketer John Gleeson, who mystified batsmen with his unique bent finger spin, has passed away aged 78, Cricket Australia said on Saturday.
Gleeson played 29 Tests between 1967 and 1972, and debuted for his country in the 1967-68 Test series against India in the First Test at the Adelaide Oval.
He captured 93 wickets in his Test career at an average of 36.20.
