All-time Ashes combined XI

9 Dennis Lillee

Dennis Lillee

Dennis Lillee is among the greatest fast bowlers in cricket history and without a doubt, Australia's finest fast bowler. His fearsome pace, swing, seam movement and overall viciousness made him a nightmare for most batsmen and in Tests against England, he seemed to lift his game.

He played only 26 Test matches against England over a period of 11 years from 1971 and 1982, but emerged as the second most successful bowler in the Ashes across both teams, with a haul of 167 wickets.

Lillee took 10 wickets in a game 4 times and had also recorded 11 five-wicket hauls against England and remains one of the most consistent game-changing bowlers in Ashes history.
