The Greatest Test of All is J. H. Fingleton’s authoritative account of the famous 1960–61 Tied Test between Australia and the West Indies, played at Brisbane — one of the most dramatic and historically significant matches in Test cricket history.
 
Fingleton, a former Australian Test batsman and respected cricket writer, brings a journalist’s precision and a player’s insight to the narrative. He reconstructs the match session by session, examining tactical decisions, individual performances, and the mounting tension that culminated in cricket’s first-ever tied Test.
 
Beyond the scorecard drama, the book captures the spirit of post-war international cricket and the growing stature of West Indies cricket on the world stage. Statistical tables and match data are included, making this both a compelling narrative and a valuable reference work.
