Travis Head finishes unbeaten on 142 whilst Alex Carey ends on 52 not out as Australia close on 271-4 at stumps on day three, giving them a lead of 356 in the third Ashes Test and putting England on the verge of the fastest Ashes series defeat in more than 100 years.

Carey survived a review when on 72, after being caught by Jamie Smith, and later admitted he had edged a delivery from Josh Tongue. The Snicko technology picked up a sound, but it ​did ​not align with the ball's flight by the bat in the review of the delivery, so the decision stood.
