Champions run deep in the Lawry narrative. The dispute was the genesis of WSC, and on the team's return to Australia, Lawry sent the Board a letter expressing player grievances. [20] Lawry scored 592 runs at 84.58. "And I've just become a voice. [6], Lawry made his Test debut on Australian soil in the First Test of the 1962–63 Ashes series at Brisbane. "No big celebrations for me," he says. I'd had no ambitions to be a television caller; my plan was to be the best pigeon fancier I could be.".
Lawry was to bow out of international cricket in one of the most acrimonious series in Test history. Today, both men show none of the weariness that their years might prescribe. He doesn't have to be, but routines forged over a … Song lines forged decades ago and oft-repeated, always evoking the same unreserved laughter and delight each time. There were very pleasant memories on the field, but very unpleasant ones from the accommodation, the type of travel, the food we were getting and lack of support we were getting from the board. "They're on my mind 24 hours a day actually," Bill says. "And this was when no-one knew about it," says Bill, forever the raconteur.

It was this great 'second act' in the commentary box which came at the invitation of Richie Benaud and saw Bill display an excitement which belied his stoic, almost monastic, style as an opening batsman.

Lawry was unceremoniously dumped as captain and player for the final Test of the 1970–71 Ashes series in Australia.
