Australia who are aiming for a whitewash in the fifth Ashes Test match against England are in the verge of doing it. England who started the day two had to bow down before the Aussie bowlers. Australia got stuck into England from the word go, a wicket with the second ball of the day of England captain Cook and a first hour of utter carnage saw England destroyed. Having bowled England out cheaply for 155 runs in the first innings, Australia have quickly pushed their lead beyond 300 runs.

Even if England were put on to bat on day three morning, Aussie bowlers might wrap them up by the lunch hour and would end the match in three days.

Score details: England 1st Innings: 155 allout, Stokes 47, Braod 30*,  Siddle 3/23, Johnson 3/33, Australia 2nd Innings: 140/4, Rogers 73*, Anderson 2/36
