Wicket by wicket: How Twitter reacted to England bowlers' demolition of Australia in the fourth Ashes Test

 
Unbelievable: England were as stunned as viewers
Getty
6 August 2015

In just an hour and a half England have taken a spectacular step towards Ashes victory, with an evisceration of Australia's batsmen that left them all out for 60.

Stuart Broad was the undoubted star, recording the 21st best figures in Test history with a return of 8 wickets for just 15 runs. In Ashes cricket only Jim Laker's 19 wickets over two innings at Old Trafford in 1956 represented a better return.

But England's fielders were equally deserving of praise, none more so than Ben Stokes. His flying catch to dismiss Voges drew comparisons with Andrew Strauss' spectacular diving take in 2005. And this game, and the meagre 111 balss of the Australia innings. could be as memorable as any from that legendary series.

Broad gets the party started

After just three balls England had their first wicket, Chris Rogers edging low to Alastair Cook at first slip off Broad's bowling.
