5 of the lowest points for Australia in Ashes history

#1 4th Test at Nottingham, 2015

Stuart Broad running riot at Trent Bridge

When the two teams headed to Trent Bridge, Nottingham, in the 2015 Ashes, England were leading the series 2-1 and Australia were looking for a win to square the series. Considering the fact that England's pace spearhead James Anderson was not available, Australia must have fancied their chances.

However, things fell apart for them in the very first morning in quite spectacular fashion. After England sent them in to bat, local boy Stuart Broad ran through the Australian batting line-up in a devastating spell of swing bowling that saw Australia get dismissed for 60 in a mere 18.3 overs.

Broad picked up 8 wickets in his 9.3-over spell and Australia simply had no answer to his bowling. They were defeated by an innings and 78 runs to cap off one of the most embarrassing Ashes defeats in history. They managed to hit back with an innings victory of their own in the 5th Test, at The Oval, but still ended up losing the series.
