John Richard Collins (1 August 1932 – 18 June 2021) was an Australian cricket Test match umpire.
In its place a 'World Team' visited Australia and played a series of Test standard, although never officially recognised.
Collins stood in one of these matches, and witnessed Garfield Sobers score 254, an innings he later regarded as the greatest he ever saw.
At the conclusion of the match, the West Indian captain Clive Lloyd strongly criticised Collins umpiring, requesting that he be replaced for the final test.
