Ashes Legends

England and Australia will be battling it out for the Ashes this winter. And nothing will get you in the mood for the clash more than this Mirror special edition.

Ashes Legends takes a look back at the 143 years of battle between the two sides for the urn.

It has thrown up idols of a nation – Botham, Flintoff, KP, Bob Willis, John Snow, Ray Illingworth among those on one side. Lillee, Warne, Thomson Border and Ponting leading the way for those men in baggy green caps.

We’ve also had the most unlikely of success stories. Bespectacled, grey-haired David Steele, Richard Ellison in 1985 and Gary Pratt 20 years later.

This special edition relives the drama on the field and the controversy off it - just in time for the latest crop of players to try and add their names to the Ashes Legends!
