TYPHOON TYSON AND THE 54/55 ASHES
In another episode of The Analyst Rewind, looking back at a great moment in cricket history, Simon Hughes talks to the author Richard Whitehead, whose new book on England's 1954/55 Ashes victory celebrates perhaps England's greatest Ashes triumph. It chronicles how Len Hutton's team came back from a disastrous first Test in Brisbane to win the series 3-1, only the second time in Ashes history that England have come from behind in Australia to win the urn. It was the series that christened the rapid but unknown Frank Tyson as The Typhoon - regarded by the men who played in or watched that series as the fastest bowling there had ever been.
The episode also includes a tribute to the brilliant, virtuoso Northants, Durham and England batsman Wayne Larkins, who passed away last weekend.
