England vs Australia 5th Ashes Test Day 3 Live Score: Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett Solid As England Retake Lead vs Australia

ENG vs AUS, 5th Ashes Test, Day 3 Live: England openers eye a strong start on Saturday after play resumes on Day 3 of the ongoing fifth and final Ashes Test at The Oval. Earlier, Steve Smith's 71 helped Australia recover from a batting collapse as the tourists frustrated England by battling to a first-innings lead of 12 runs. Australia were eventually bowled out for 295 on the stroke of stumps. Australia lead 2-1 in the five-match series. (Live Scorecard)

Australia's Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne Script Bizarre Ashes Record

Australian batters Usman Khawaja and Marnus Labuschange entered record books for the slow pace of their batting during the fifth and final Ashes Test against England at The Oval. They batted at a run rate that created a new Ashes record. Khawaja and Marnus batted really slow in Australia's first innings, stitching 42-run stand for the second wicket in 26 overs. This was largely due to Labuschagne's slow knock of nine runs in 82 balls. By the time Labuschagne was dismissed, Khawaja had played 123 balls and was unbeaten on 37.

Harry Brook Falls Short Of Ton As Australia Take Charge Of Fifth Ashes Test

England's Harry Brook fell short of a maiden Test century against Australia as the tourists had the better of the opening day of the fifth and final Ashes clash at The Oval on Thursday. Brook's 85 was the centrepiece of England's 283 all out, although he should have been dismissed for five on a day where Australia, unusually, dropped five catches. But Australia, after captain Pat Cummins won his first toss of the series and sent England into bat in overcast, bowler-friendly, conditions, then lost just one wicket under the floodlights to be 61-1 at the close -- a deficit of 222. Usman Khawaja was 26 not out and Marnus Labuschagne, fresh from his hundred in last week's rain-marred drawn third Test at Old Trafford, unbeaten on two.
