1950/51: Hassett retains Ashes despite England fight
Lindsay Hassett took over from Bradman as skipper and retained Ashes despite a tough fight from England.
Australia regained the Ashes in the 3rd Test with an innings victory at SCG. Iverson took 6 for 27 in the second innings after Miller’s dominant 145 not out.
Australia’s unbroken run of 26 Tests was broken in the final Test after England won their first Ashes Test in over 12 years. Hutton, Simpson, and Bedser were the chief architects of the victory.
Jake Iverson finished the series with 21 wickets at 15.23 but never played a Test again.
