36,000 In Test Drama

The huge crowd packed into the Headingley cricket ground at Leeds watched in tense silence for three quarters of an hour for the final stroke which would give Australia the victory over England.

Then, when it did come, they gave one great cheer which could be heard a mile away, and surged on to the field.

It was one of the great moments of a Test match packed with drama and with a background of thunder clouds.
