Australia lose the second test in Sydney after dropping Don Bradman from the team. Onto Melbourne for the third test match and Bradman is recalled to the Australian team scoring freely all around the wicket to make his maiden test century becoming the youngest player to score a test century aged 20.

The Australian test side arrived in England in the middle of the great depression of 1930, Bradman dominates the English bowling throughout the series breaking record after record as Douglas Jardine predicted, the Ashes are regained by Australia.
