It is every batsman’s dream to score runs in the Ashes, which is considered the most historical and prestigious series of Test cricket. In this series played between Australia and England, pressure, environment and conditions are all very challenging. Despite this, some batsmen scored so many runs in a single Ashes series that their names are still recorded in golden letters in the record books.
Sir Don Bradman
At the top of this list is the name of the great Sir Don Bradman. In the Ashes series played on the England tour in 1930, Bradman scored 974 runs in 7 innings of just 5 Test matches. His average was 139.14, which even today seems like a dream. In this series, he played a historic inning of 334 runs and scored four centuries. Cricket experts believe that this performance will probably never be repeated,
walter hammond
England’s legendary batsman Walter Hammond is also at second place in this list. Hammond scored 905 runs in the Ashes series played on the Australia tour in 1928-29. He scored four centuries with a big innings of 251 runs and became a strong pillar for England at that time. This kind of performance in foreign conditions is still considered very special.
mark taylor
Former Australian captain Mark Taylor is in third place. In the 1989 Ashes series, he scored 839 runs in 6 test matches. During this period, his innings of 219 runs was much talked about. Taylor’s batting played an important role in giving Australia a strong position in the series.
Sir Don Bradman
Sir Don Bradman’s name appearing twice in this list shows his greatness. He scored 810 runs in the Ashes series played in Australia in 1936-37. During this period, three centuries and one half-century came from his bat. Even in this series, his average was around 90, which is a big proof of his consistency.
steve smith
This feat was accomplished by Australia’s Steve Smith in modern cricket. Playing in the difficult conditions of England in the 2019 Ashes series, Smith scored 774 runs in just 4 Test matches. His average was more than 110 and he scored three centuries. This series of Smith is counted among the most memorable Ashes of today’s era.
