The Ashes 2023 | Australia dismisses England for 237; takes 26 runs lead in third Ashes Test

England limited the damage in the third Ashes test as Ben Stokes and even pacer Mark Wood went on the attack to eventually concede a 26-run advantage to Australia on July 7.

The hosts were all out for 237 in reply to Australia’s first innings of 263 with Australia captain Pat Cummins taking 6-91 in 18 overs.

England had started after lunch on 147-2, still 121 runs behind. That deficit was quickly reduced as Stokes advanced in the afternoon session from 27 not out to top-score with 80, which included five sixes and six fours. He was caught by Steve Smith off Todd Murphy as the last man out.
