  • Ian Salisbury (England 1992 to 2001) Ian Salisbury Was a Prolific Wicket
    Ian Salisbury (England 1992 to 2001) Ian Salisbury was a prolific wicket-taker in county cricket but struggled in his day job in Tests, taking only 20 wickets at large expense. Wisden claimed the leg-spinner’s googly could be picked because of a higher arm action, which negated the threat he posed. Keith Medlycott, his Surrey coach, felt Salisbury was under-bowled and had his confidence diminished by frequent criticism from people who had little understanding of a leggie’s travails. Yet Ian was a willing performer and an excellent tourist. Salisbury’s Test career was a stop-start affair. Over more than eight years, he played in only 15 Tests. Despite these disappointments Salisbury’s determination was never in doubt. Several times as well, he showed more backbone than his supposedly superior English spin colleagues; most notably in India in early 1993. Ian Salisbury also proved to be an excellent nightwatchman, invariably making useful contributions. His Test innings as nightwatchman are shown below. Date Opponents Venue In Out Minutes Score Jun 1992 Pakistan Lord’s 40-1 73-2 58 12 Jan 1993 India Calcutta 87-5 163 AO 183 28 Mar 1994 West Indies Georgetown 253-5 281-7 86 8 Mar 1994 West Indies Trinidad 26-5 27-6 6 0 Jul 1994 South Africa Lord’s 136-6 59 6* Aug 1996 Pakistan Oval 273-6 283-7 27 5 Jul 1998 South Africa Nottingham 199-4 244-5 102 23 Aug 1998 South Africa Leeds 200-4 206-5 21 4 Nov 2000 Pakistan Lahore 391-6 468-8 148 31 Nov 2000 Pakistan Faisalabad 105-2 203-4 209 33 Ian Salisbury’s NWM Appearances in Test matches Salisbury had only one failure as a Test match nightwatchman; joining his fellow rabbits in Curtly Ambrose’s headlights in the rout for 46 in Trinidad.

  • AMICUS Newsletter
    AMICUS MAY 2019 Vol 46 No 2 Journal of the B S H S Past Students’ Association Inc. HERITAGE LISTING Brisbane State High School is a place that satisfies numerous criteria of the Queensland Heritage Act 1992. With its core built in 1864 and opened in 1865 as the South Brisbane Primary School, Block “H” was the South Brisbane Intermediate School from 1929 to 1953. Block “H” was transferred to Brisbane State High School in 1964 and was added to the Queensland Heritage Register in 1994. In November 2018 the Red Brick Building, Block “A” and three significant fig trees on the Merivale Campus alias The Farm were added to the Heritage Register. The Statement of Significance states: “Block “A”, (1925) the first purpose-built state high school built in Brisbane, is one of the earliest schools in Queensland not attached to a technical college. It illustrates the Queensland Government’s commitment to state-provided secondary education. Block “A” is an excellent, intact example of an Urban Brick School Building designed by the Department of Public Works (DPW). It is important in demonstrating the principal charac- teristics of this type, which include: a handsome edifice standing in a prominent location; symmetrical two-storey form of classrooms and teachers rooms above an understorey of open play spaces; a linear layout of the main floors with rooms accessed by corridors; loadbearing masonry construction; prominent projecting central entrance bay; and a high standard of design to provide superior educational environments that focus on abundant natural light and ventilation. It demonstrates the use of stylistic features of its era, through its roof form, joinery and decorative treatment.
