Australia vs. England Ashes 2013: Day 5 Scorecard, Report and More from Adelaide

England came out all guns blazing on Day 5 of the Second Ashes Test against Australia at Adelaide; lasting just 11.2 overs before the hosts completed a resounding 218-run win.

Australia began the day needing just four wickets to take a commanding 2-0 series lead with three Tests to play—just one more victory will see the Ashes return Down Under for the first time since 2006/7.

The day began with some rain in the air, and the start of play was pushed back 10 minutes as the ground was cleared and readied for cricket.

With no rain around to save England it was up to the batsmen—and they lived up to recent woeful type.

Stuart Broad hooked the fourth ball of the day brashly over square leg for six, only to perish in the deep the very next ball trying to do the same thing again. It was a shot which had Twitter wondering whether he had taken leave of his senses.

Graeme Swann managed six runs before he pushed a ball from Ryan Harris to slip.

There was one plus for England—Matt Prior played a selection of fine strokes to raise a timely half-century. Fluent and authoritative, you would have been forgiven for thinking he was a man in form. In fact it was his first score above 50 in Tests since March.

He too fell hooking, becoming the fourth man in the innings to do so. For a team trying to save a Test match, it was a damning statistic.

It was left to the unlikely pairing of James Anderson and Monty Panesar to bat out the remainder of the day. They lasted 13 minutes before Panesar was caught off Harris' bowling.

There is no time to regroup for England—the teams head west to Perth for the Third Test on Friday, with the tourists never having recovered from 2-0 down in Australia before in the long history of the series.
