Wisden overview
A soft-spoken country Queenslander, Geoff Dymock would have played more Tests for Australia in an era less blessed with fast-bowling talent.

No bowler, too, was so tireless a trier in the years when Queensland seemed likelier to win the FA Cup than the Sheffield Shield. Gideon Haigh
