1979 - Australia v England - 1st Ashes Test @ WACA
On December 15, 1979 at Perth, Dennis Lillee had marched out to bat with a piece of willow aluminium that would attain cult status in cricket folklore. The umpires insisted Lillee had the bat changed. Lillee obliged, but a taunt from Rod Marsh made him change his mind. Then Mike Brearley interrupted play with a complaint. At this stage, after Hogg refused to go out, Chappell walked out himself with a willow bat. Lillee hurled the bat above Chappell’s head and continued with his bland wooden plank; and Chappell collected the offensive piece of metal and walked back.
