Lightbulb Brain Teazer

I'd really categorize you as a cricket genious if you can get this teazer right, recognize who this former England test player with a really bad bad hair style (inspired by Dizzy by the looks of things) is?



Hints: He scored 1059 runs at an average of 33 across a career that spanned just 19 tests, yet he is still to to date a very famous face in international cricket. "The highligh of his test career came when he saved England as they followed on against Australia by holding out for 499 minutes against Dennis Lillee and Jeff Thomson to score 149. Although he added two more hundreds, also against Australia, he first interrupted his Test career by signing for World Series Cricket in 1977, then ended it forever by joining the rebel South African tour of 1981-82" - source cricket info.
