ENGLAND FIGHT BACK TWO SEMI-INVALIDS
Now only 83 runs behind Australia's 1st innings score with 6 wickets standing
SUBBA ROW, BARRINGTON IN UNBROKEN STAND
London, Aug. 21. England, once more with their backs to the wall, are still fight- ing hard to save the series, in the fifth and final Test of the Oval.
The home side made a disastrous start to the fourth day, losing two men in seven balls, but despite these setbacks they ended the day only 83 rurts behind Australia's mammoth first innings total of 494, with six wickets in hand.
The loss of Geoff Pullar and Ted Dexter at the sort for only a single appeared to have destroyed England's chance,
