Stanley Joseph McCabe (16th
July 1910 – 25th August 1968) was an Australian cricketer who
played 39 Test matches for Australia from 1930 to 1938. A short, stocky
right-hander, McCabe was described by Wisden as "one of Australia's
greatest and most enterprising batsmen" and by his captain Don
Bradman as one of the great batsmen of the game. He was never dropped
from the Australian Test team and was known for his footwork,
mastery of fast bowling and the hook shot against the
Bodyline strategy. He was one of the Wisden Cricketers of the Year in
1935. In 1932–33, McCabe made his breakthrough at
international level in the First Test of the infamous Bodyline series,
scoring an unbeaten 187 at the Sydney Cricket Ground in four hours as his
teammates fell around him.
