The Australians at Trent Bridge 1878 - 1980

Book in very good condition; some shelf wear. 1st Edition

"Lord's may take pride as the oldest first-class cricket ground on which Test Matches are staged - Trent Bridge is second only to cricket's Mecca in this respect, but no one can deny the famous Nottingham ground its niche in history, as the venue of the first ever match played by an official Australian touring side. It is appropriate therefore that Nottinghamshire should boast the best record of any English County against the Australian tourists. For the County can claim to have beaten the visitors on eight occasions."
