- 1970–71_Ashes_series abstract "The 1970–71 Ashes series consisted of seven cricket Test matches, each of five days with six hours play each day and eight ball overs. It formed part of the MCC tour of Australia in 1970–71 and the matches outside the Tests were played in the name of the Marylebone Cricket Club. Ray Illingworth's England team beat Bill Lawry's Australians 2–0 and regained the Ashes. It was the first Test series to have more than five Tests and is the only full Test series in Australia in which the home team failed to win a Test. "The Momentous Series of 1970–71" was pivotal in Test and One Day International cricket history and "essentially ushered in the modern period of Test cricket". It saw the first One Day International which Australia won by 5 wickets in Melbourne, where they had won the first Test in 1876–77. Ray Illingworth's use of hostile, short-pitched fast-bowling by John Snow, Ken Shuttleworth, Bob Willis and Peter Lever heralded the dominance of fast bowling in the 1970s and 1980s, and the decline of behaviour by players as the England team united under against ineffectual management, biased umpires, tabloid press and hostile crowds. Geoff Boycott had his most prolific series with 657 runs (93.85), as did his opening partners John Edrich – 648 runs (72.00) – and Brian Luckhurst – 455 runs (56.87) – together adding 995 runs (90.45) for the first wicket with five century and three half-century opening stands. Rod Marsh, Greg Chappell, Dennis Lillee, Terry Jenner, Alan Thomson, Kerry O'Keeffe, Ross Duncan, Ken Eastwood and Tony Dell made their debuts for Australia and Bob Willis, Brian Luckhurst, Ken Shuttleworth and Peter Lever for England. It also saw the retirement of Bill Lawry and Garth McKenzie from the Australian team and Don Bradman after 35 years as a selector. In addition it saw the inaugural Test match at the WACA Ground in Perth, the first new venue in an Ashes Test since the Brisbane Cricket Ground at Woolloongabba in 1928–29.".
