terence michael alderman -lrb- born 12 june 1956 in subiaco , western australia , australia -rrb- is a former australian cricketer who played primarily as a right-arm fast-medium bowler of limited pace but nagging accuracy and movement .
he began his first-class career in 1974 with western australia in the sheffield shield and came to international prominence when he was chosen for the australian national team to tour england in 1981 .
in that series he took 42 test wickets , including nine on debut , the biggest haul in a series since jim laker 's 46 in 1956 and the fourth-highest total of all time .
alderman 's 42 wickets is the record for the most wickets taken in a series without taking 10 wickets in a match .
he was named as a wisden cricketer of the year in the almanack 's 1982 edition .
he was disabled from playing for over a year by a shoulder injury sustained on 13 november 1982 when he rashly tackled an english-supporting ground invader at the waca ground in perth .
alderman took part in an unofficial australian tour of south africa in 1985 -- 86 and 1986 -- 87 , when that country was banned from test cricket as a commonwealth anti-apartheid sanction .
as a result , he received a 3-year ban from international cricket which disqualified him from playing in the 1985 ashes series in england .
following his suspension , alderman returned to the australian side and resumed his success against england , taking 41 wickets in the 1989 ashes series and another 16 in the 1990 -- 91 series , his final ashes appearance .
he rarely enjoyed similar success against other countries .
his final test series was against the west indies in 1990 -- 91 , where he ended his career with 170 test wickets .
he was a poor batsman , passing fifty just once in his career and averaging barely eight in first-class cricket .
he had three seasons in english county cricket , with kent -lrb- 1984 and 1986 -rrb- and then with gloucestershire -lrb- 1988 -rrb- .
he now works as a courier for mercury in western australia .
on 28 july 2000 , alderman was awarded the australian sports medal for being the all-time leading wicket taker for western australia .
alderman 's sister denise emerson is married to former test umpire ross emerson and herself played seven tests for the australian women 's cricket team .
alderman is an alumnus of aquinas college , perth .
