Australia vs England, 3rd Test - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Mitchell Starc to Stokes, out Bowled!! Knocked him over! 143.6kph, wobble-seamer, nip-backer from Starc, Stokes doesn't account for the movement as he looks to force it through the off-side. Big gap between bat and pad for the ball to sneak through and crash into the off-stump. Starc roars and punches the air in delight as he breaks the century stand. Stokes, on the other hand, is absolutely livid with himself. Jumps in disbelief, then tosses the bat up before walking back angrily. Jofra Archer walks up to his captain to congratulate him.
