Australia were facing the prospect of their first defeat at home in
more than four years after a late batting collapse left England in control
of the fifth Ashes test on Sunday.Chasing a near-impossible 452 to
complete an historic 5-0 series whitewash, Australia's top-order crumbled
to 91 for three at stumps on the fourth day at the Sydney Cricket
Ground.Veteran pace bowler Andy Caddick trapped Justin Langer for three
and Ricky Ponting for 11 while Matthew Hoggard sent a furious Matthew
Hayden on his way when he struck him on the pads for two after the ball
had clearly pitched outside the leg stump.
