I remember him well.

Ditto.
Modest. No artifice. Workmanlike.

Great memories of a great cricketer. I remember him and Doug Walters.

Great opener. Partnership with Keith Stackpole. Redpath a brilliant cover fielder. Nice guy from all accounts. Vale.

Sad news indeed
I was fortunate to see him and Rick McCosker smash the MCC around the SCG in 1975 when we won the Ashes back 🥂🥂👏👏🙏

Cricket was such a more gentlemanly game when Redders was around.

Oh! Vale - to a very skillful and somewhat underrated player

Love watching Ian Red path in early 70s.

Greg Chappell said he was one of only two players he knew who would kill to get into the Australian Test team, the other being Rod Marsh.

" Ian was the last Australian to represent his country without being paid: he forsook player payments up to and including his Test debut rather than jeopardise his status as an amateur footballer."

Redders!!

What a sublime obituary! Magnificently understated, just like Ian 'Redders' Redpath himself.
It was a different time, a different game, and I miss its simplicity.
