Episode description
Simon Hughes and Simon Mann complete the special podcast series looking back at the epic 1974/5 Ashes by assessing its seismic impact on cricket. It heralded the most ferocious period of fast bowling the game has seen, and the inevitable introduction of proper head protection. Now, half a century on, it has led to a generation of super-adventurous, fearless batters and a doubly entertaining game.
