This completed an astonishing turnaround in the match after England had been forced to follow-on after a first-innings collapse (despite the best efforts of Ian Botham, who took six wickets in Australia's first innings and scored 50 in England's), but Botham's second-innings 149* and Willis's eight wickets won the match for England.
The outcome turned around dramatically after England was forced to bat again following a disastrous first innings collapse (despite Ian Botham's valiant efforts, which included six wickets in Australia's first innings and 50 runs in England's), but Botham's second-innings heroics of 149* and Willis's eight-wicket haul won the match for England.
