England Vs. Australia, First Test Match, Day 3

Bad light, early stumps!
They leave and yes, that's all for the day. Smith has been supreme again. This time he has even received blows in the helmet, but is there, undefeated, threatening again with a great score. Much of the game will be decided by how early England catches it tomorrow. Remember that they are without Anderson ... Apart from Smith, today it was also the Stuart Broad tickets and how Australia did not shoot him for 52 balls ... and then caught him with a short ball. Australia now leads 34 races with 7 wickets in hand. Another fantastic day awaits us. Join us again, ta-ta!
Boss, Smith stabilizes Australia
And just when I write this, Smith was hit in the helmet by Ben Stokes. Right at the beginning of this shooting shot ... slow release, I told you Get treatment and delete a concussion test, so there is no replacement. Apart from that, Head has given him good company on the other end. It started cautiously, but now it opened with some knocks, which means that Australia's advantage is growing. It is helping Root be activated from one end.
Stokes interrupts the rally, Khawaja falls
Man of England for all climates and all situations, Ben Stokes attacks with only his second ball of these entries. It seemed that Smith and Khawaja were preparing to eliminate the deficit and build for Australia, but the latter has to leave after being baffled by a pinch. Khawaja played off the line and the ball took the inside edge on his way to the goalkeeper.
Uzzie left for 40, Edgbaston finds his voice again. Australia is still at 14 and its time for Salvador Smith
Khawaja, Smith join
An association of 30 and so many running a ball. Not too bad, right? Khawaja was knocked down on the 11th by Buttler against Moeen in FSL, but since then he has seen himself with good pace. Few sharp shots to launch Australia. The two now have an advantage of 28 runs to eat before they can start thinking about setting the goal.
Moeen gets rid of Bancroft
Moeen was hired as soon as the eighth and attacked soon. Bancroft played a rotating delivery and Buttler handed it to Buttler in FSL. Easy loop capture. And with that, Australia loses its two openers. They still have 62 races wait, wait, it's not over. That more had more. Buttler drops a low catch offered by Khawaja!
Warner goes early
It also becomes the 450th test post of Broad. You should also have seen the Hollies say goodbye to Warner. Warner decided to leave so late, he receives a pen that Joel Wilson misses with confidence. Root revisions and is another annulled decision. What is the count, again?
Anderson out, England withdrew, its early Tea!
If yesterday it was about Australia trying without luck, today's afternoon session was the antonym. Australia did not try hard enough, especially against Stuart Broad, who did not throw a short ball by almost 52 balls in his innings. As expected, he contacted one when Pat Cummins played as if he wanted but the damage was already done. With Chris Woakes, who remained undefeated at 37, England made 65 runs for the ninth wicket, gaining a crucial advantage of 90 runs in a pitch that is slowing down for hours. This was the first time that both parties published more than 50 stands for the ninth wicket in their respective first entries of an Ash Test since 1986/87.
How is Anderson batting?
It looks good with the bat but a bit cautious among the wickets. There have been reports that he has been playing networks ... Well, we'll see.
Broad finally falls
When Australia bowls the short bowl as they mean it, Stuart Broad falls. Where was this short ball for so long? And it's Pat Cummins, as expected; who takes the wicket as Broad confuses him with the thin leg. But 65 major races were added; now leading beyond 80 ... James Anderson comes out!

The association continues to give
England now has 352 on the board, which means that the advantage is already 68. And to celebrate that milestone, the crowd of Edgbaston (it's a day of costumes, yes) stands on ovation. Let's not talk about David Warner, who is being criticized on the border ropes ... But Australia seems a bit hunched over. They had the opportunity to restrict leadership to a maximum of 40, but here they are, without answers and an old ball to throw at Woakes and Broad.
