2006/07 Ashes Series record crowds

Postby spell_check » Sat Jun 27, 2009 6:47 pm

I've worked out that the 2006/07 Ashes series created a record daily average attendance for an Australian Test summer.
This beat a 70 year old record set in the 1936/37 Ashes series.

2006/07
1st Brisbane 39288 39315 38719 37056 10369 164747
2nd Adelaide 31458 30321 30075 24552 20355 136761
3rd Perth 24175 24268 22006 20703 12288 103440
4th Melbourne 89155 75770 79426 244351
