拍品专文

This match produced the most dramatic of England victories. England were reduced to 135-7 on the fourth day – 92 runs shy of making Australia bat again, with several of the team, including Botham, having checked out of their hotel. However, once Botham had been joined in the middle by Graham Dilley no bowler could escape his wrath, with 110 of his 149 runs coming in boundaries as he plundered 27 fours and one huge six. By the close of play, England had the slimmest of leads, 124. With the lead increased to 130 on the final day, Bob Willis stepped up and produced his greatest spell of fast bowling. The tourists fell from 56-1 to 75-8; an unprecedented reversal of fortunes occurred when they were all out for 111. England won by 18 runs and Willis’s figures were an astonishing 8-43.
