England dominated Day 3 of the 4th Ashes Test against Australia, with Mark Wood taking three wickets and Chris Woakes taking one to keep England on top. Zak Crawley scored 189 and Jonny Bairstow hit an unbeaten 99 as England posted 592 all out, taking a first innings lead of 275 runs over Australia. Australia ended the day at 113 for 4, trailing by 162 runs.
Australian cricketer Travis Head claims that England wicketkeeper Jonny Bairstow had attempted to dismiss him in a similar manner during the first Test at Edgbaston. Bairstow was stumped at Lord's when he ducked underneath a short ball and walked down the pitch, prompting Head to remind him of their previous encounter. The controversy surrounding Bairstow's dismissal has escalated, with players, coaches, and even the Prime Ministers of both countries getting involved. Australia won the Lord's Test and now leads the Ashes series 2-0.
