The match started amid clear weather, a far cry from the previous Ashes Test at the ground in 1938, which was abandoned without a ball being bowled. The outfield was also smooth and green, a far cry from the Second World War when it was cratered from Germany bombing raids.

Lindwall then struck Edrich on the hand with a short ball, provoking angry heckling from spectators who compared him to Harold Larwood.
Why did they compare him to Larwood?
