Whenever the 1993 Ashes Series comes up, you generally associate it for "The ball of the century" or perhaps Graham Gooch being dismissed handled the ball. Or just simply another domination in the 16 consecutive years Australia held the Ashes. The series was also what probably was Tim Mays' best Test series he had.

He bowled beautiful off breaks didn't he. Also didn't chuck any of them

The first one that gets Gatting is an offies dream. Gets up above the eyes and drifts away, drawing the batsman fwd and then dips and turns sharply to do him in flight and hit middle peg.
Glorious.
