    Compton's kneecap was removed in November 1955, and England didn't play any Tests that winter (if they had, it's clear that Compton wouldn't have played - he didn't play county cricket until July 1956).

    How would you rank the greatest test teams of all-time?

    Possibly England's strongest squad for batting: The top 5 plus Mead, Tyldesley and Leyland (who all played at some point in the series) all averaged 45+ in Tests.
