Australian team all out on 60 against England |
Fast-medium bowler Broad´s Test-best return of eight for 15 in 9.3 overs, after England won the toss on his Nottinghamshire home ground, started with two wickets in the first over of the match -- including his 300th in Tests.
Mitchell Johnson (13) and Australia captain Michael Clarke (10) were the only batsmen to make double-figure scores in an innings that was wrapped up in just 18.3 overs -- the quickest any team has ever been bowled out in the first innings of a Test -- during a scarcely believable 94 minutes´ play in Nottingham.
Australia´s total was the lowest by either side in an Ashes innings since England were dismissed for 52 at The Oval in 1948.
England lead the five-match series 2-1 and victory at Trent Bridge would see them regain the Ashes.
