Stuart Broad dismissed David??Warner for its seventh time in the show as England reduced Australia into 68-3 at dinner in their bid to get a series-tying draw day four of the fifth Ashes Test at The Oval.
SCORECARD | AS IT HAPPENED
Warner (11) edged Broad to Rory Burns at slide to end a dreadful series with 95 runs in 10 innings in an average of 9.50 – that the left-hander’s final knock only the second time he reached double figures.
Warner and Marcus Harris (9) had finished Australia’s greatest opening stand that summer – a paltry 18 – until Broad delivered Harris’ off stump cartwheeling from round the wicket.
Australia, chasing 399 for victory after dismissing England for 329, were subsequently steadied by the usual suspects Steve Smith (18no) and Marnus Labuschagne (14) – just for Jack Leach to turn a rescue beyond the latter external border and have him stumped by Jonny Bairstow.
Leach (9) and also Jofra Archer (3) fell inside 20 minutes after England had resumed 313-8 – Archer out caught behind on review after he had been demonstrated to have gloved Pat Cummins down the leg-side, and Leach caught off Nathan Lyon (4-69) in mid-on later top-edging a teaser.
Before his 2 wickets and one for Leach boosted their hopes of a 2-2 draw broad swelled the complete of England by hammering two sixes off Cummins.
Smith – who now has Matthew Wade (10no) for company – stands in their way, though.
