Alan Davidson, Australia's Hall of Fame all-rounder, died on Saturday morning at the age of 92. Alan played 44 Tests for Australia between 1953 and 1963, making him one of the game's best players and most influential and well-liked figures.

His death came only a day after the death of one of Australia's most beloved cricket figures, former Test spinner. Ashley Mallett Davidson was a left-arm paceman who took 186 Test wickets at a fantastic average of 20.53, with a best haul of 7-93. He was also a capable batsman, with five half-centuries to his name during his Test career. Davidson was a key member of Australia's team in the tense 1960/61 series against the West Indies at the Gabba. Davidson will be remembered for his contributions to cricket at all levels in Australia and around the world.

Cricket Australia Chair Richard Freudenstein said: "The death of Alan Davidson is a sad day for Australian cricket, as well as cricket around the world. Alan was a titan in our game, not only as one of the best players to ever represent Australia and NSW, but also for the positive impact he had as an administrator, mentor, and benefactor."

In the 1949-50 season, Davidson made his first-class debut for NSW, and in the 1953 Ashes tour, he made his Test debut. He went on to play 44 Tests, taking 186 wickets at 20.53 with a best of 7/93 and scoring 1328 runs at 24.5, including a top score of 80.
