1996 World Cup Profile:

A stalwart of the Australian team since 1988/89, and a good chance to overhaul Rod Marsh`s record of most wicket-keeping dismissals. A proud and aggressive character, Ian Healy has risen from fraught beginnings in Pakistan to become one of world`s foremost `keepers, with excellent footwork and anticipation. These qualities have made him a crucial element in the success of Shane Warne`s leg-spin, not to mention his unrelenting verbal pressure, although he is said to have mellowed lately. Never afraid to counter-punch, his aggressive batting has often saved Australia from perilous situations, and he has scored two Test centuries. Interestingly, Healy is astigmatic in both eyes.
