editBill Hayward was born in the Adelaide beachside suburb of Glenelg, and attended St Peter's College, Adelaide, where he captained the cricket team in 1948.[1] In 1949 he went to study at Jesus College, Cambridge. He gained his cricket Blue for Cambridge University in 1950, 1951 and 1953 as an opening bowler. He took his best figures of 6 for 89 against Surrey in 1953.[2] A week earlier he had taken eight wickets in the match against Nottinghamshire when the other Cambridge bowlers took only four.[3]
