Dennis John Lillie (born 28 October 1945) is a former Australian cricketer. A leg spin bowler he played in the Queensland state team 17 times between 1966 and 1981. [1] He was educated at the Anglican Church Grammar School in Brisbane. [2]
Lillie's career partly overlapped with that of Australian fast bowler and ICC Cricket Hall of Fame inductee Dennis Lillee. [3] The two similarly,but not exactly,named players never appeared together in the starting lineups of the same game,however Lillie was twelfth man in a Queensland v Western Australia Sheffield Shield game during the 1980–81 season,and in fact caught Lillee in the first innings of that game. The following line appears from that scorecard:DK Lillee c sub (DJ Lillie) b GS Chappell 11
In a South Australia v Queensland match in 1982,David Hookes hit four consecutive sixes,and 28 runs in an over,off Lillie’s bowling. [4]
