Andrew Ramsey, The Australian newspaper’s cricket correspondent for the 2005 Ashes, keeps both gloves on his bat to re-live one of the greatest Ashes Tests ever with host, Louis Cameron, on the 20th anniversary of the Edgbaston epic.

It was a Test made famous by Glenn McGrath’s rolled ankle, Ricky Ponting’s fateful ‘we’ll have a bowl’, reverse swing, Andrew Flintoff brilliance, Shane Warne stepping on his stumps, Michael Kasprowicz’s last-ditch departure and an iconic photograph of sportsmanship.

But we have delved even deeper, into John Buchanan’s fondness for a Worcestershire cake stall, an Ashley Giles sideshow, the Ponting-Warne dynamic, security concerns that gripped the Australian camp, and so much more.
