Sky Cricket Podcast: Nasser Hussain looks back on day one at The Oval

Australia survived past lunch on day one of the fifth Ashes Test at The Oval.

After falling to 60 all out inside one session at Trent Bridge as England regained the Ashes, Michael Clarke's men showed a lot more fight in the final Test of the series to reach 287-3 at the close of play.

Clarke scored only 15 of those runs but was given a guard of honour in what is his final Test for Australia after announcing his retirement from international cricket.

On the latest Sky Cricket Podcast, Nasser Hussain reflects on that tribute from England, as well as good knocks for David Warner (85) and captain-in-waiting Steve Smith (78no).

Nasser also runs the rule over his fantasy cricket team's performance, talks about his beloved Chelmsford, and reminisces about his final-Test triumphs at The Oval, including Phil Tufnell's 11-for against Australia in 1997 and beating West Indies in 2000.
