The self-confessed cricket tragic will try to discover what happened at the crease and chart the wider social and cultural implications of the controversy by enlisting historians, sports scientists and cricket stars including Commonwealth Bank Bushrangers John Hastings and Michael Hill to simulate the actual events.
“I always wondered what Bodyline was really like. As a school boy batsman who once dreamed of wearing the baggy green, could I face what those guys faced? Could I stand where the Don stood?” Zwar asked.
In the end, Zwar is on his own with no helmet, no modern padding, and just a bat for protection as he puts his body on the line in the name of cart.
How will he handle this ultimate test?
Bodyline: The Ultimate Test airs Sunday, 17 November at 7.30pm on ABC1.
