About Alan Connolly
- Alan Norman Connolly (born 29 June 1939, Skipton, Victoria) is a former Australian cricketer who played in 29 Tests and one ODI from 1963 to 1971.
- Connolly was a fast bowler early in his career, but slowed his pace to increase his accuracy and became a reliable support bowler in partnership with Garth McKenzie.
- He was instrumental in Australia's 159-run victory at Old Trafford in 1968, the only time England lost a match in a sequence of 40 Tests between 1966 and 1971.
- He headed Australia's bowling figures for the series, with 23 wickets at 21.34.
- He played the 1969 and 1970 seasons for Middlesex. On the tour of South Africa in 1969-70 he took 20 wickets at 26.10, in a series in which Australia lost all four Tests, and his four fellow pace bowlers took only 17 wickets between them at a combined average of 61.70.
- He was recalled for his last Test match in the Fourth Test at Sydney in the 1970-71 Ashes series, but was dropped after taking just one wicket in Australia's 299-run loss.
- He retired from first-class cricket at the end of the season.
