Test Cricket from Australia: Australia v England: The First Test Match

on BBC Two England

by Satellite

The fight for the Ashes starts today in Brisbane, and Peter West introduces this recording of highlights of the first day's play sent from Australia by satellite.
Victories against Australia are never gained easily. Len Hutton's side in 1954-5 were the last to win a series outright in Australia when England's fast bowlers played a decisive role.

Presented by David Kenning and Bill Taylor in collaboration with the Australian Broadcasting Commission
