Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the 3rd Test between England and Australia at the Headingly, Leeds.

ENG vs AUS Match Preview

A draw or a win at Leeds is all that Australia need to retain the Ashes. Sans Steve Smith, the visitors face an uphill task. But for the home side, it’s an opportunity to pounce on good starts that they have had with the ball in the series so far. Smith, with twin centuries in the 1st test, snatched the early advantage from England. In the second Test, he again made a difference with his innings of 92. Marnus Labuschagne will replace the former Australian captain in the middle-order.

For England, Jofra Archer raised quite a few eyebrows on his debut, sending down 44 overs tirelessly. England will have to manage his workload to prevent him from a possible burnout. Opener Jason Roy, who was hit on the helmet during a practice session a couple of days back, has been cleared to take part in the Test. He might again be assessed by the team doctors on the morning of the match.

England called-up Ollie Pope as a backup for Roy. The 21-year-old will bat in the middle-order should Roy be deemed unfit.
