New Delhi: The most hyped third test of the Ashes 2023 series started on July 6 in Headingley, Leeds. England captain Ben Stokes won the toss and decided to bowl first on a surface with a touch of bounce and a green surface to help sailors. During the first over of the test match, when Stuart Broad and David Warner faced each other, the Headingley stadium crowd was ready for another breathtaking display.

The Australian opener got his team off to a good start by playing an “on drive” on the game’s first ball that beat the fielder at the half and run for a four. Later, England sailor removed Warner for the 16th time in Test cricket when he shoved the fifth ball from the straight to Zak Crawley at second slip.

In the first innings of the first Test, the England sailor also got Warner out by forcing him to play back on his stump. Broad also previously had the upper hand against Warner during the 2019 Ashes, getting away from him seven out of 10 innings. The Southpaw could only score 95 points in 10 innings at an average of 9.5.

The Australian opener is now fifth on the list for most Test match dismissals against a specific bowler. On the fifth slot, Warner is joined by England’s Graham Gooch, who was also sacked 16 times in his testing career by famed West Indies sailor Malcolm Marshall.

“Special shirt for my 100th test”: Steve Smith shares emotional story

Australian batsman Steve Smith is all set to reach the milestone in his career as he plays his 100th test match at Headingley on Thursday. Before the game, Smith shared a story on his Instagram account “Special shirt for my 100th test”.

In 99 games, Smith scored 9,113 points at an average of 59.56. He has scored 32 centuries and 37 half centuries. Only 15 cricketers make up Australia’s ‘hundred club’, but Smith will join an even narrower group as one of only three batters in the sport’s history to have played 50 or more Tests and averaged at least have achieved 59. Smith had scored 110. runs in the first innings of the second test match, which forms a solid foundation for Australia.’
