A fast bowler who never knew when to stop

Dick Motz, the first New Zealand's bowler to reach 100 Test wickets, has died in Christchurch.

Geoff Longley offers his in tribute in The Press while Lynn McConnell writes on Sportal about the fast bowler who loved hitting sixes.

The Waikato Times, which rates Motz as the fifth best seamer that New Zealand ever produced, hails him as:

"He could be a shock and a stock bowler. Extremely courageous and durable, with a fine fast bowler's hatred of batsmen."
