England: Lost 1–2

How England performed

England lost the first two Tests of the 1891–92 series in Australia before a heavy win in the last. In Melbourne they took a first-innings lead, 264 to 240, but were bowled out for 158 in the fourth innings and lost by 54 runs.

The 2nd Test in Sydney followed a similar course. England led 307 to 144 on first innings, yet Australia's second-innings 391 turned the match, and England were dismissed for 156 to lose by 72 runs. With the series already decided, England finished in Adelaide by making 499 and bowling Australia out for 100 and 169, winning by an innings and 230 runs. Australia took the series 2–1.
