England lead by 214 runs with 6 wickets remaining in the 1st innings

Australia tour of England and Ireland, 4th Investec Test: England v Australia at Nottingham, Aug 6-10, 2015

Once upon a time Australian cricket team winning all the test matches against almost every team of the world in the captaincy Mr. Ricky Ponting, former Australian captain Mr. Steve Waugh was worried about the difference between Australia and all other  test cricket playing nation's which was in the favor of Australia in total. Now I am worried upon such a down fall of team Australia, they all were caught out in just 60 runs, Oh my God cricket would have to observe this black day in my sense, nothing is important but England's performance today, they did what others can only dream about, they muted their critics by the consistency they shown to us today, positive batting approach after having opposition got out early in the day specially in 1st day of test cricket match., poor performance by Australia decrease interest of cricket in the match and series as well, I never observed any team to come out from the early pressure in Ashes, how Australia is a great team who can provide us a fighting test cricket still. Hope for the better Ashes 2015. Find out the fact sheet below, the highlights as well, source of scorecard is Cricinfo,com

The lead England would have got would be more pressurizing to Australia, Cricket Australia would be under pressure after a long time, captaincy clash would be on fire now which was part of Australian media before the start of the match, a double century and a match saving success can save Cricket Australia and Australian Cricket from a real down fall, when two teams played against each other one of them must have loose the game if not drawn or tied but the Australian choose today to sacrifice the series is terrible, it is "Extra" who is top scorer with 14, MG Johnson scored 13 and Captain MJ Clarke* scored 10 runs with a thank you very much and no other player bother to let the scorers record any double figure innings. In the innings today in 4th investic test match between Australia & Australia, a gifted looking Ashes trophy to England now, the score and overs with full scorecard shows it as the score card of t20 cricket match, 18.3 overs were faced by Australia, some one should stay on pitch, PM Nevill†  played 25 balls and scored 2 runs and have a biggest partnership of the innings with Captain who also played 25 balls, all team looking in hurry to leave the crease as ther must be some well cooked lunch for them or any threat would have been made to them to play like T20 match might not score like a T20 match. Poorest cricketing approach shown by Captain Clarck and company they may save the match or even win it to let us have final of ashes 2015 as best of five but wind is blowing against them, a toss winning suicide by Captain clarck, they need some batsman like Sarfraz of Pakistan who can score fearlessly, the fear which would have captured all Australian team is very dangerous for interesting Ashes series, highlights of the 4th test available Live TV, which would be found out from above. It is SCJ Broad who took 8 wickets in first innings his best figures ever, it is difficult decision for England to let SCJ Broad lead the bowling attack, All the damage done by one man as only two wickets for other two bowlers, Mr Aleem Dar Pakistan Umpire accompany with with Indian umpire S Ravi observed this club cricket style batting approach by Australia, it would be unjustified if we only write and cry over Australian poor performance and ignore the best performer of the innings SCJ Broad who would have made a sign of danger for all almost Australian batsmen. Number of AUS top-7 batsmen who scored more than 10 runs during the 1st inns - 79 years since this happened in an Ashes Test. No team would have been got out in 111 balls that Australia did today. Joyful bowling by England, joy and joy in bowling while it is joe full name Joe Root in the batting for England who took the due responsibility today.
