Items related to Greatest: The Glory Years Of Australian Cricket
From 1993 to 2008 the Australian cricket team reached the highest of heights. They won three world cups in a row and 16 consecutive test matches. They continually dominated England in the Ashes, destroyed the once great West Indies, and outplayed South Africa and India both at home and abroad. Cricket fans were glued to their television screens as legend after legend stepped onto the pitch, among them Steve and Mark Waugh, Adam Gilchrist, Damien Martyn, Justin Langer, Ricky Ponting, and of course\ the once-in-a-lifetime-player Shane Warne. It was an unprecedented run of success, even surpassing the achievements of Don Bradman’s Invincibles and the rampaging West Indies of the 1970s and 1980s. This all-encompassing history revisits the key moments, major players, and bright personalities of the golden era of Australian cricket with match-by-match analysis and a slew of captivating color photos.
