England lost by 9 wickets in the first Ashes Test against Australia.

England fans will wake up disappointed as they lost by nine wickets in the first Ashes Test against Australia as a result of a very familiar batting meltdown.

Root and Stokes did not encourage England

However, Joe Root’s men lost the last eight wickets in 77 overs.

David Malone and Root were quickly dismissed for 82 and 89, respectively, distinguishing any English hopeful in the few minutes.

The tourists forced the Australians to strike again, but their paltry 20-points were easily recovered amid the fall of Alex Carey.

This means England have not won in Brisbane for 35 years, and dangerously Root’s have won just one of their last ten Tests.
