Grahame’s most recent title is Six of the Best: Cricket’s Most Famous Over (Celluloid, 2008 A book celebrating the 40th anniversary of Garry Sobers hitting six sixes off one over for the first time in first-class cricket was published in 2008 As well as the memories of Sobers and bowler Malcolm Nash, the book features the recollections of the surviving members of the Glamorgan and Nottinghamshire teams who took part in the historic game at St Helen’s in Swansea on 31st August 1968.The book also casts new doubts on the authenticity of the ball sold at auction for £26,400 nearly two years ago and explains how Sobers’ amazing achievement came to be recorded by BBC Wales - thanks to a cricket-mad cameraman who asked the director on the day to keep the cameras rolling. Among those recalling the events of that momentous afternoon is the Glamorgan fielder Roger Davis. This fascinating ball-by-ball account of the five minutes of mayhem also reveals what happened to the players who took part in the game, to the two umpires and to the bat and the ball which was found in a nearby street by schoolboy Richard Lewis. Roger Davis was the fielder who nearly caught Garry Sobers when the great West Indian all- rounder became the first man in cricket history to hit six sixes in an over in first-class cricket. Davis was fielding on the long-off boundary and off the fifth ball of Malcolm Nash`s historic over, Davis caught one of Sobers` mighty blows, but in so doing, he fell over the boundary and the umpires signalled six. Three years later, another blow almost ended Davis` life, as for a few awful moments during Glamorgan`s match with Warwickshire at Cardiff, it looked as if Davis would not recover from being hit on the side of his head whilst fielding at short-leg. After being struck, Davis collapsed, went into convulsions and had to be given the kiss of life by a doctor who ran onto the ground from the member`s enclosure. Thankfully, this helped to save Davis` life and after a brief spell in hospital, he fully recovered, and by the following season, Davis had regained his place in the Glamorgan side. Davis had made his Glamorgan debut in 1964, and soon developed into a correct middle-order batsman, and accurate off-spin bowler. In 1975 he enjoyed his most profitable season with 1,243 He was above all else, an oustanding fielder close to the wicket, and despite his near fatal accident, he stood fearlessly close to the batsmen and held many fine catches. Indeed, his 33 catches during 1969 was an important element of Glamorgan`s success in winning the County Championship. During 1976, Davis lost form with both bat and ball. It was a huge surprise when the club did not offer him a long term contract at the end of the season. Davis resigned and left the club, without a benefit after his 13 years of loyal service to the county. .
