Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Bodyline is an Australian TV miniseries from 1984, retelling the story of the "Bodyline" Cricket series from 1932-33. The English team had developed an unusual — and highly dangerous — tactic to counter the seemingly unstoppable Australian batsman Don Bradman. Bodyline involved bowling very fast and short, bouncing the ball toward the batsman's shoulder, and keeping several fielders close in behind him to catch him out if he attempted to play it. Several players were struck and injured, and the violence of the tactic nearly caused a diplomatic incident between England and Australia. |
