ORANGE ASHES TEST SERIES IN AUSTRALIA, 2002-03 Australia stretched its dominance of the oldest rivalry in international cricket by winning its eighth successive series against England 4-1, a run dating back to the 4-0 win by Allan Border’s side in 1989. Stephen Waugh’s side ensured they retained the crystal replica urn of The Ashes after just 11 days of cricket and looked set to become the first Australian side to complete a series whitewash in a five-Test Ashes rubber for 81 years until injuries and a spirited England effort in Sydney brought defeat. Even in that defeat, however, there was still plenty for Australia to celebrate as Waugh confirmed his return to form with a brilliant 102 that will live long in the memories of those who saw it. It was his 29th Test hundred equalling the Australian record of Sir Donald Bradman, Waugh’s first at home in almost two years. During the course of his innings he became only the third player in history, after former Australian captain Allan Border and Sunil Gavaskar of India, to reach 10,000 Test runs. All that on his 156th appearance, equalling the world record for caps held by Border. Australia’s series success was founded on a top-class team performance as, despite its dominance, none of its players totalled 500 runs and only one bowler – leg-spinner Stuart MacGill – claimed a five-wicket haul. Matthew Hayden began the series with a bang, scoring twin hundreds in his home Test at The Gabba after England captain Nasser Hussain had decided to bowl first on winning the toss. Hayden added a third three-figure score at the Melbourne Cricket Ground and finished as Australia’s leading run-scorer with 496 runs. Ricky Ponting, with hundreds in each of the first two Tests at Brisbane and Adelaide, and Hayden’s opening partner Justin Langer, who made 250 at Melbourne as part of an opening stand of 195, also passed 400 runs. With Adam Gilchrist, Damien Martyn and Waugh all topping 300 runs for the series, Australia usually had big totals at which to bowl. 71 The attack took full advantage of that situation with the old firm of Jason Gillespie, Glenn McGrath and Shane Warne all proving as effective as ever. They were three of six bowlers in Australia’s ranks who claimed 10 or more wickets in the series. Gillespie finished as the joint leading wicket-taker in the series with 20 victims, a mark he shared with England’s Andrew Caddick. McGrath topped the averages with 19 wickets at 20 runs apiece and Warne claimed 14 wickets in three matches. Warne missed the final two matches of the series after dislocating his right shoulder in a VB Series match before Christmas, and McGrath picked up a troublesome back injury in the fourth Orange Test in Melbourne that ruled him out of the final match of the series in Sydney. Those injuries meant Australia took the field for that fifth Orange Test without either McGrath or Warne for the first time in 119 Tests, and that fact, together with the effort of spending more than two days in the field in Melbourne after making England follow on, proved too much of a handicap to cope with as England rallied, thanks to hundreds from Mark Butcher and Michael Vaughan, and 10 wickets for Caddick on a deteriorating pitch. Vaughan, who also scored hundreds in Adelaide and Melbourne, was named man-of-the-series by a panel of media commentators after totalling 633 runs in the five Tests. During the series, Australia gave a Test debut to Queensland’s Martin Love, who replaced Darren Lehmann of South Australia for the final two matches, at Melbourne and Sydney, when the latter was struck down by illness. Love became Australia’s 385th Test cricketer. In keeping with the International Cricket Council’s policy, two overseas umpires stood in each of the five Tests, the first time this had taken place in Australia.
