Australia Win First Ashes Test against England by 251 Runs

Birmingham: Australia registered an emphatic victory over England in first Ashes test on the final day.

Off-spinner Nathan Lyon’s superb bowling (6-49) made Australia to win the test by 251 runs after dismissing England for 146 in its second innings on the final day.

Lyon reached 350 test wickets in a remarkable turnaround for the Australians. They had been reduced to 122-8 in their first innings at a hostile Edgbaston.

Allrounder Chris Woakes provided England’s top score with a defiant 37 at No. 9 as the hosts crumbled from 60-1 to 97-7. Woakes was the last man out in the 53rd over to Pat Cummins (4-32) as England crumbled in the afternoon session.

The second of five tests starts at Lord’s on August 14.
