Australian cricket slips to new low in a test match
The Australian innings collapsed as Hirer and Rhodes troubled the line and length, sparking a disaster that matched a record for the lowest innings. Yet Australia gained the consolation of a new low, surpassing their own previous worst by six runs, while also holding the dubious record for the highest innings total conceded in tests at 586.2. The stark contrasts highlight a grim Birmingham and Oval pair of innings as England and Australia battled in a rare low-scoring exchange.
