DRAMAS OF THE ASHES

The historie Brisbane match of last December has been called the greatest Test of all time. It was the first Test to end in a tie... a drama that revitalised tho game after many fean years.

But there have beon comparable dramos in cricket history and no two countries have provided so many sensations as England and Australia-in the battle for The Ashes.

Was there ever a more fantastic series than that of 1902 !

when England won a Test by one wicket and lost an other by fire rung? Or such controversy as that which surrounded the "body-line bowling" Tests?
