2005 Ashes Special with Brett Lee, Steve Harmison, Michael Kasprowicz and Brad Hodge.
About this episode
20 years ago this week, the greatest Test series of all time took place in England - the 2005 Ashes. We dive into chats with Brett Lee, Steve Harmison, Michael Kasprowicz, and Brad Hodge to hear some of their best stories from the series. Lee talks about the ‘Spirit of Cricket’ photo, getting hit on the gloves, and a spray from Punter. Hodge shares what it was like getting sledged while sub fielding, Hadds recalls facing Tait in the nets, Kaspa reflects on being part of a legendary bowling attack, and we finish with Steve Harmison’s recollection of life inside the English camp as they retained the urn.
