One Of The Blackest Days In English Test History

Kennington Ovol, August 14.

One i the blackest days in the history of English Test cricket

occurred on the opening day of the fifth and final Test -

match against Australia at the Qval.

In two and a half hours England were skittled out for 52-the lowest score that they have ever made against Australio in this country.

In the entire series of 153 matchos only once have they been dismissed for a smaller total and that goes back to 1886-87 when they fell for 45 at Sydney. The only bright consolation is the fact that there have been three lower scores by Australia.
