Mitchell Johnson and the turnaround of his cricketing fortunes between the Ashes of 2010/11 and 2013/14 is one of the most memorable stories in the history of the game. In this video, we look at how he went from the victim of the barmy army to the chief enforcer, and series winner, for the Australia Cricket Team.

Hey guys, just letting you know that there’s a couple of small errors in the numbers flashed on screen during this video. Mitchell Johnson’s match bowling figures for the Adelaide and Perth tests were 8/113 and 6/140 respectively. Still impressive performances, but not what was on screen. My bad, I must have gone cross-eyed looking at my notes 🥴 Shoutout to @patrickmclary7342 who picked up on this. Cheers for watching!

English fans also had a sign at the end of that Ashes series "Mitchell Johnson, thanks for the Ashes". Spiteful, unsporting and petty stuff from a group of supporters that usually bring a great atmosphere to the game. Then that comeback. Bloody hell. Johnson was absolutely rampant. Kevin Pietersen describes in his book how some English batsmen were afraid to leave the dressing room. A cracking tale, expertly told. Well done!

Bottlecaps, scissors, all sorts of creams and so on have been used and are still used by bush leagues where you can get away with it. It's funny isn't it how reverse swing is not really a thing anymore in the modern age where cameras are always following the ball. England also seems to have lost a lot of their remarkable swing even with the Duke balls.

1 thing which hasn't been mentioned in this video is his IPL stint before that Ashes. MI used him predominantly as a new ball wicket taker to just run in, bowl quick, swing it & pick wickets while not having to worry about bowling at the death. There were many a times when MJ blew away oppositions in the powerplay swinging it at 150kmph. The Ashes in England was just after this tour & when he wasn't selected I knew it was a big mistake as evident in the T20 series vs England where he was bowling 155kmph rockets. Then later in 2013 he came back to India for a 7 match ODI series & on those tracks where 350 was getting chased down regularly he was the best bowler on either side due to his sheer pace. He was summoned back to Australia before the series deciding 7th ODI where Rohit got 200 to prepare for the Ashes & even though I couldn't have imagined the impact that he would eventually have, I knew that he was going to have a great series which he did. I only watched that Ashes for MJ because of the sheer thrill he brought while bowling in that series.

MJ was brutal in that summer. I thought he was just as hostile, if not more so in the away series against the Saffers. Absolutely terrifying. There were a couple of deliveries he bowled to Graeme Smith and Faf du Plessis that would turn the players in the pavilion as a white as a sheet. Can we also just reflect on how good a bowling coach DK is/was? Not only is he one of the best quicks of all time, but he's able to pass that knowledge on to others. What a legend.

He truly is an Australian 'great' fast bowler and his longevity could well become unprecedented. I think he is better than Johnson with the new ball and against the tail enders ... but not quite as good as a few in getting BIG wickets, breaking partenerships etc (as an aside Cummins has just created a record that might never be broken when in taking Pandt's wicket at the MCG he became the 1st bowler to have broken 50 - 50 run partnerships ... that is a staggering statistic and it highlights the point of getting BIG wickets). Be that as it may - Cummins and Starc compliment each other so well and Cummins knows that Starc is a better new ball bowler than he is ... and thats why, as Captain, he throws the ball to Starc for the 1st ball every Test he plays. You make a good point and it really is a tough choice ...

Let me add few of the things that I remember apart from those 37 english wk and 22 South Africans wk later. U just can’t forget the way he bowled in 2013 in ipl where he swung the ball with deadly pace and those odi’s in 2013 after ashes against eng there he showed his pace too and then the last series that he played in ind before ashes where he almost destroyed 2 careers one of UV and other of raina. He went for runs for sure but who didn’t in that epic series but he was by far the best in that series. All these performances were enough to tell what was about to happen in tests after his return. He might not be the best but it can be said he was the most intimidating bowler of his time for sure. Salute to the efforts and to the comeback he made, records might concur but those who saw u they’ll remember u for their lifetime…

Then the absolute demolition and entertainment of watching Johnson with all my mates, along with iconic performances by Ryan Harris and some of the batters. We all went to the WACA test dressed in tank tops with JOHNO spelled out on the front. Glued to the radio or tv for the other games - that was peak Australian cricket summer as a 20-something year old.

I also remember him being coached into trying to focus on swinging the ball consistently, because he had one or two great games moving the ball in the air (one aided by breeze). Which kind of didnt go with his game. The more he tried to swing, the more his action deteriorated. Once he found his own game and was allowed to play it, it all clicked into place.

Watching Johnson was an absolute pleasure throughout his career. Even when he wasn't taking wickets, his ability to physically intimidate even the best batsmen in the world was worth us having a fifty run lead alone. Probably the best bowler of swing since Dizzy Gillespie, but Johnson also added that extra step up of pace, with a yorker that surely kept the English awake at night!

Great video mate .....just awesome ...Johnno just teared apart the poms...there is no good other feeling...seeing Jimmy either being smacked or being smoked😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Excellent effort and article. Johnno is said to have adopted his "demon" moustachioed appearance directed from former great Aussie quick Fred "Demon" Spofforth. Fred was the first bowler to take 50 Test wickets and at his time there was only one opposition...the English Gentry. If you can find a pic of him you'll see the similarities.

When the so called cricket pundits talk of great comebacks, they often forget to mention Mitch Johnson. I mean they generally talk about batsmen a lot. But only true cricket aficianados know what Mitch Johnson was like to see and feel during that golden Australian summer of 2013-14. Even Mitch didnt stop there. He tore away the South African batting line up. 22 wicketa from 4 matches. The period from 2013-2014 witnessed peak Mitchell Johnson. Thanks for this video. It was good. You are truly a cricket aficianado.

It was the most intimidating series of bowling I’d seen. Mitch just scared the poms, this type of bowling is fun to watch.

I love how one of the commentators said "this is like the days of Lillee and Thompson" when Lillee was Johnson's mentor. The impact he had in his resurgence speaks volumes.
