By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright
(Received November 21, 8.15 p.m.) MELBOURNE. Nov. 21
Sensational cricket occurred to-day when the match between the touring English team and an Australian eleven was resumed. As a result of fine bowling by Nagel, England was dismissed for 60 runs in the second innings.
When stumps were drawn on Saturday, the Australians had scored 216 for nine wickets, in reply to the visitors' total of 282.
When play was resumed this morning, tho weather was warm and the wicket fast and good. The attendance was 15,000 and the receipts £770.
Four Wickets in Four Overs
Seven minutes sufficed to finish tho Australian innings, only two runs being added to Saturday's score of 216.
England's collapse was sensational. Nagcl took a wicket in each of his first four overs. The batsmen were deceived by the pace of tho wicket and also by Nagel's off-break. No batsman was comfortable. Pataudi batted >59 minutes for five runs. He and Larwood were out to the simplest catches at silly leg. About 2.30 p.m. two unsuccessful appeals against the light were made. The sky was then heavily overcast. Duckworth gave a chance off Nagel and was then dismissed next ball.
Nagel took the first four wickets for nine runs. At luncheon, he had taken six wickets for 21. His final average was eight wickets for 32.
Nagel is 6ft. 6in. tall and bowls fastmedium. He has been very successful, as has his twin brother, in club cricket, but both unfortunately cannot play regularly in big cricket.
England's innings took 91 minutes. Heavy Rain Stops Play Before a ball could be bowled in the Australians' second innings, heavy rain fell. After two inspections of the wicket, the captains decided at 4.30 p.m. that there should be no further play to-day. More rain was threatening. The scores were as follows: —
