It is exactly 35 years since Allan Border, bowling his shitty left arm orthodox spin, took 7/46 against the mighty West Indies at the SCG.
It remains the best bowling figures by an Australian captain in the last 60 years, and second-best all-time behind Ian Johnson’s 7-44 against the West Indies at Georgetown in 1955.
So there’s a note for Pat Cummins – Lift your game, son.
