LONDON: Australia were dismissed for 481 on the second day of the fifth and final Ashes Test against England at The Oval on Friday.
Captain-elect Steven Smith top-scored with 143, his second hundred of the series after his 215 in Australia’s 405-run win in the second Test at Lord’s David Warner (85), Adam Voges (76) and Mitchell Starc (58) all made fifties after Australia had been sent into bat by England captain Alastair Cook.
Steven Finn and Ben Stokes took three wickets apiece. But Stuart Broad, whose eight for 15 saw Australia skittled out for just 60 on the first morning of their series-losing innings and 78-run defeat in the fourth Test at Trent Bridge, bowled 20 wicketless overs for 59 runs.
