Australia are all set to go past the total set by England. Can England cause a collpase on Day 3 and curb Australia from taking a lead?

Jimmy Anderson has so far bowled 15 overs and has given away 30 runs. He hasn't taken a wicket yet, but will Day 3 be a different from Day 2? will he be able to remove the threat of Usman Khawaja?

David Warner has been dismissed yet again by Stuart Broad. The dimissal on Day 2 turned out to be the 14th time that Broad got him out.

After two enthralling days of supreme Test cricket action, the Edgbaston Test is nicely poised. Australia are trailing by 82 runs and Day 3 will showcase which team will take the lead. Usman Khawaja, who scored a well-compiled 126 runs on Day 2, is still in the middle and seeking to take the game away from England. Supporting him is Alex Carey, who has so far held the other end tightly to build 91 stand with Khawaja. Carey is on 52*. So, with everything in balance, Day 3 is the day to look forward to as it could be the most crucial in the context of the game. Stay tuned for live updates.

In reply to England's 393/8d, Australia endured a shaky start, with David Warner, Marnus Labuschagne, and Steve Smith falling cheaply. However, Usman Khawaja kept going strong, and along came the handy innings of Travis Head (50), Cameron Green (38), and Alex Carey (52*). Courtesy of Khawaja's 126* and other contributions, Australia have reached the mark of 311 after losing 5 wickets. The visitors are 82 runs behind and with Khawaja and Carey in the middle, they are on course to take the lead.
