This Ashes series featured legendary Australian batsman Sir Donald Bradman, but he wasn't the story in this Ashes series but rather the tactics that the English would use to edge out the Australians.
England captain Douglas Jardine came up with a strategy to get his bowlers to bowl at the bodies of the Australian batsman instead of the stumps in order to negate their impact, especially Bradman's.
English would go on to win the test 4-1 employing those bowling tactics.
Bradman was known throughout his career for his high batting average of 99.94, but his average in this series was lowered to 56.57 runs per innings due to the tactics used by the England team.
It is known as the 'Bodyline' Ashes series due to the controversial bodyline bowling that was met with disapproval from the Australian public at the time.
