'Winning in Australia has always been the pinnacle'

Bouncing back to put one across the old enemy, on their turf - doesn't get much better than that

M.C.C. team in Australia and New Zealand, 1962-63

England went to Australia in 1962-63 with two main objectives: to regain the Ashes; and to provide cricket capable of recapturing the enthusiasm of the public, as West Indies did two years earlier.

England v New Zealand

At Christchurch, March 15, 16, 18, 19, England won by seven wickets

England v New Zealand

Again, they were far superior, particularly in batting.

England v New Zealand

England won by an innings and 215 runs, outclassing New Zealand
