Test XIs we should have had: 1978-79 A Set the default text size A Set large text size Replay A Set the default text size A Set large text size This is the second in my series of hardcore deep dives into hypothetical XIs Australia should have played in years gone by.

After regaining the Ashes at home 5-0, it then retained them away 3-0. Its eight consecutive victories is an Ashes record. It was a world record until the West Indies broke it in 1984. Armstrong is still the only captain to have led a team in eight or more matches without a single defeat. It’s timely to acknowledge those achievements a century later, and also to consider how his side that went to England might fare today. How strong was it, and how good a captain was Armstrong? ....
