1932-33 Bodyline series

The 1932-33 Bodyline series was a controversial cricket tour where England’s team used a tactic called "bodyline" against Australia. Bowlers aimed at Australian batsmen's bodies with fast, short-pitched deliveries, often on the leg side, to intimidate and restrict scoring. This aggressive strategy was designed to counter Australia’s strong batting but risked causing injury and damaged international relations. The tactic led to protests and tensions between the two nations. Ultimately, it marked a significant moment in cricket history, highlighting the balance between competitive sport and sportsmanship, and resulting in changes to the game's laws.
