Cricket World Cup: 1975

Ian Botham had other ideas though, taking five for 11 in 14 overs and bowling his side to victory. No doubt he celebrated with a cup of tea and [...] [Read More...]

Botham’s Ashes: Headingley Third Test

Legends of Cricket: Sir Donald Bradman

Universally accepted as the greatest batsman of all time, Donald Bradman’s test average of 99.94 is ludicrously high and likely never to be beaten. This tribute shows what made him so great and why England had to resort to bowling at his head to try and get him out. [Read More...]
