Tour of Tours: Border's victorious Australians of 1989
by Patrick Eagar and Alan Ross
After England had been defeated by the West Indies in 1988, and Australia was three down in their home series against them in 1988-89, there was talk about the Ashes series of 1989 being a contest for the ‘wooden spoon’. But to Australia’s captain, Allan Border, there is nothing like an Ashes struggle to set the adrenalin flowing. ‘This is the ultimate tour’, he stated before he left for England. ‘I know that most Australian and English cricketers and fans see this as the tour of tours.’
