Goodbye, Stacky

Keith Stackpole often set the tone for Australia's innings in the early 1970s, with his steely presence and bat that spoke volumes

Bobby's day out

Forty-odd years ago, Australia went into a Lord's Test as underdogs, one down in the series, and came out smelling of roses

Boycott on a black pudding

In 1972, on a surface utterly ruined by rain, the England opener played an innings wholly uncharacteristic of his usual batting

Massie's mystery, Lillee's menace

In the Ashes series of 1972 the weather was hostile, the pitches indifferent and crowds at Old Trafford and Headingley stayed away

The Prudential Trophy, 1972

When the Test matches were over England and Australia played a series of three one-day games for a trophy named after the sponsors, the Prudential Assurance Company
