That really was a shocking series for him.

Also interesting to note that England have never lost 5 home ashes tests in one series unlike Australia.

Rodney Hogg was an OK bowler. But given the rest of the popgun attack, it was hardly surprising he got a lot of wickets that series.

This deserved more discussion.
