Description
Daniel Kyle Morrison is a former New Zealand cricketer. He specialised as a pace bowler with a useful outswinger. He made his test debut for New Zealand in 1987 at the age of 21 against Australia.
His most notable bowling accomplishment occurred on 25 March 1994, when he took a hat-trick in a One Day International against India. He is one of only two New Zealanders and twenty-one players worldwide to have taken an ODI hat-trick. He is fondly remembered by his fans for his big grin and his unique bowling action. During the final stride of the delivery his bowling arm used to displace air behind the umpire in such a manner that it would make umpire?s shirt flutter.
Morrison's most notable "accomplishment" as a batsman is that he once held the world record for Test ducks. Of the 48 Tests he played, he was dismissed without scoring in 24 innings.
Morrison was often subjected to good natured ridicule regarding this from his teammates and the general public due to his feeble efforts. This went as far as a tie being manufactured in 1996 featuring numerous ducks to celebrate his world record. [More at Wikipedia]
