Match report
Aussies on top despite Beaumont's heroics
Australia will be much the happier of the two sides after that final session, at one point it looked like they might be behind on first innings but they snaffled the final England wickets quickly and then truly dominated with the bat. England were guilty of spraying it around and wasting the new ball, handing the momentum back to Australia and taking a little of the shine off Tammy Beaumont’s history making day.
There are two days left in this Test match and so plenty of time for a result, it feels like England will need to get something from this game in order to have a chance in this Ashes series. Australia are such a strong white ball side, perhaps the best ever, that it’ll be hard to prise any points off them in the shorter format games. But hark at me, Mr Doom and Gloom. Despite Australia having the upper hand at stumps, the day firmly belongs to the remarkable Tammy Beaumont who now has a slice of cricket history to her name.
That’s it from me, we’ll be back tomorrow to bring you day four. Have a good one, goodbye.
