They had been the first Australian cricket team to tour England. Way back in 1868. It took 128 years before a man from their people played Test cricket
There was Johnny Unnarrim Mulagh, a superb all-rounder, was by far the most successful cricketer on that 1868 tour.
There was Bullocky the superb wicketkeeper who stumped 28 batsmen on that tour.
