HMAS Sydney, named for the Australian city of Sydney, was one of three Modified Leander class light cruisers  operated by the Royal Australian Navy. Ordered for the Royal Navy as HMS Phaeton, the cruiser was purchased by the Australian government and renamed prior to her 1934 launch.

During the early part of her operational history, Sydney helped enforce sanctions during the Abyssinian crisis, and at the start of World War II was assigned to convoy escort and patrol duties in Australian waters. In May 1940, Sydney joined the British Mediterranean Fleet for an eight-month deployment, during which she sank two Italian warships, participated in multiple shore bombardments, and provided support to the Malta Convoys, while receiving minimal damage and no casualties. On her return to Australia in February 1941, Sydney resumed convoy escort and patrol duties in home waters.

On 19 November 1941, Sydney was involved in a mutually destructive engagement with the German auxiliary cruiser Kormoran, and was lost with all 645 aboard. The wrecks of both ships were lost until 2008; Sydney was found on 17 March, five days after her adversary. Sydney’s defeat is commonly attributed to the proximity of the two ships during the engagement, and Kormoran’s advantages of surprise and rapid, accurate fire. However, the cruiser’s loss with all hands compared to the survival of most of the German crew have resulted in a controversy, with some alleging that the German commander used illegal ruses to lure Sydney into range, that a Japanese submarine was involved, and that the true events of the battle are concealed behind a wide-ranging cover up.

The Great Escape

Following a controversial decision to bat first and trailing Pakistan by more than 200 runs on the first innings, very few truly believed that victory for Ricky Ponting and his Australian Test Team was even remotely possible. However, as Pakistan and the rest of the Test Cricketing World know only too well, never discount the Aussies.

Following a strong batting performance, not least the partnership of M.E.K. Hussey and P.M. Siddle, followed by a memorable few hours of bowling/fielding, the Australian’s managed to bowl Pakistan out with 36 runs to spare. This Aussie win will be regarded as one of the most remarkable victories in the history of the game
