England vs Australia 3rd Test 3rd Day Live PTV Sports, Live Willow TV
Josh Hazlewood took five wickets
as England were eliminated by just 67 on the second day of the third Test Match
at Headingley on Friday to leave Australia about to retain the Ashes. England Vs Australia Live Streaming on PTV Sports and Willow TV where Australis is in a good position to win this Test Match to get lead by 2-1 in the Ashes series 2019.
This was England's lowest ash
total since 1948 and the fourth time in 18 months was dismissed by less than a
hundred in a Trial, an unparalleled record by nowhere else in the same period.
Aussies Fast bowler Josh
Hazlewood took 5-30 as England all out for just 28-overs.
Australia, which holds ashes,
will go 2-0 with just two to play in this five-match series by winning at
Headingley, then strengthened their control to be 171-6 in their second inning
slab, a dominant 283-run lead.
Marnus Labuschagne, whose
first-inning 74 was seven more than England achieved between them, 53 did not
come out.
It was his third consecutive
fifty in the series after he scored 59 in the second inning of the second test
of the draw at Lord's after coming to the side as a concussion substitute for
star hitter Steve Smith.
A miserable day for England also
saw Captain Joe Root go out looking for a duck in his homeland of Yorkshire
before dropping a routine slip when Labuschagne had turned 14.
England's problems were
compounded after tea when rising star Jofra Archer, who had taken 6-45 in the
first innings of Australia 179, limped halfway with a cramp, though he returned
to the field.
Labuschagne dropped for the second time, the 42nd, when wicketkeeper Jonny Bairstow was unable to maintain
a tough low chance to dive to his right.
Previously, Joe Denly, at 12, was
the only batter in England to reach doubles.
But while Labuschagne and David
Warner (61) fought hard during their 111-inning innings association in the
first inning, few batters from England were so prepared to sell their wickets
as well.
By hosting both the World Cup and
the Ashes with a brief change between the two main events, England had denied
several hitters first-class preparation for the very different demands of test
cricket.
By contrast, several Australians
batsmen appeared in English counties: Aussies batsmen Labuschagne is the only
batsmen who until now had scored 1,000 first-class runs this season along with
Glamorgan on England's Australia A tour.
However, England's batting
problems pre-take this season.
Friday's fall came after England
had been fired 58 by New Zealand (Auckland 2018), 77 for the West Indies
(Bridgetown 2019) and 85 by Ireland in Lord's final month.
What made this last defeat even
more troubling was that the blue, sunny skies over Headingley ground on Friday
should have made batting conditions easier than last night when Root won the
toss and elected to bowl first.
Jason Roy, given the poisoned
chalice this season from being a Starter in the English Test despite batting in
the middle order in first-class cricket with Surrey, took the guard after
having made only 40 runs in four innings this series.
He fell by nine familiarly when
he drove a Hazlewood ball record to Warner, holding the first of four catches
on the first slip.
