Ashes.

I'd never cared for Cricket before and if I'm honest struggled to get hooked like that since but that summer, that series was absolutely unreal.

Some fantastic achievments in there however.

Voted for 1, because for a team to go Unbeaten in a Premier League season is quality.

But Tommeh makes an extremely good point because i got into Cricket because i watched the Ashes 2005. Since then i haven't been as interested in Cricket except for watching Leicestershire in the Twenty20.
