3rd Ashes Test, Day 1 Highlights: Australia in control against England© AFP
ENG vs AUS, 3rd Ashes Test, Day 1 Highlights: Mitchell Marsh’s run-a-ball 118 was the cornerstone of Australia’s 263 all out on the first day of the third Ashes Test at Headingley on Thursday after the tourists collapsed either side of his blistering century. England fast bowler Mark Wood took 5-34 as the hosts backed up captain Ben Stokes’ decision to send Australia into bat on a green-tinged pitch after winning the toss. Australia skipper Pat Cummins then reduced England to 22-2 before all-rounder Marsh, playing his first Test in nearly four years, had Zak Crawley (33) well caught at first slip by David Warner in the latest example of the tourists’ superior fielding. At stumps, England were 68-3 — a deficit of 195 runs — with Joe Root 19 not out and Jonny Bairstow one not out on their Yorkshire home ground. (Scorecard)
