England struggle before lunch

England continue to struggle during the fifth Test of The Ashes, after being asked to follow on by Australia.

It took just 40 minutes for Australia to take the final two wickets of the first innings as Mark Wood went for 24 and Moeen Ali was caught for 30.

Australia continued their fine form into the second innings and Adam Lyth was caught by Michael Clarke for 10.

England then went five overs without scoring a run, and finished at lunch 301 runs behind their opponents on 31-1.
