Australia's struggling to comprehend how they aren't celebrating holding on to the Ashes
Australia's struggling to comprehend how they aren't celebrating holding on to the Ashes
26 August 2019
The tourists have lost the third test against England in Leeds by a single wicket, falling victim to a Ben Stokes masterclass and some sloppy mistakes of their own.
The England all-rounder has smashed an unbeaten 135 to level the series 1-all, including 74 off 44 balls to finish after his side was reduced to 286 for nine chasing 359.
He should have been dismissed LBW the over prior to hitting the winning runs but was given not out and Australia had no reviews left, while Nathan Lyon made a hash of a run-out the ball before.
Captain Tim Paine says he has to give credit to Stokes and England.
The fourth test starts next Wednesday in Manchester, with England needing to deny Australia victory again in the last two tests.
