Lowest Test innings totals by each of the top 10 team

#3 Australia (36 vs England at Birmingham, 1924)

Wilfred Rhodes’ spell in the first innings had the Aussies down on their knees

Deciding to bat, England posted a competitive 376 in their 1st innings courtesy a superb century by Johnny Tyldesley.

Australia’s responded in a terrible fashion getting bowled out for a mere 36 runs. Wilfred Rhodes with his slow left arm orthodox was simply superb as he finished with 7/17. George Hurst also chipped in with 3 wickets as the Aussies were dismissed for the lowest score in their Test history till date.

Asked to bat again, the Australians managed to score 46/2 before rain played spoilsport and ruled out any chances of play for the remaining days. It was the rain that saved the Aussies from getting humiliated at the hands of England once again.
