Jonny Bairstow joins this elite club after unbeaten 99-run knock

Josh Hazlewood sealed off the first session on a high note for Australia as he picked up three wickets to bring Australia back into the game on Day 3 of the Ashes 4th Test on Friday at the Old Trafford Cricket Ground.
At the end of the first session, England managed to put up a score of 506/8 in 98 overs with Jonny Bairstow unbeaten on 41(39)*. England now have a first innings lead of 189 runs. England skipper Ben Stokes and Harry Brook resumed Day 3 with their usual swagger. They picked up boundaries on a regular basis and extended their lead at a brisk pace. Stokes completed his half-century with a single but moments later ended up losing his wicket to Australia skipper Pat Cummins. The Australian dispatched the English skipper with an angled delivery, to breach his defence and clip the bails off the stumps. Stokes walked back to the dugout for a score of 51. Josh Hazlewood was introduced back into the attack as Bairstow and Brook continued to build on England’s lead. The Australian bowler made his mark in the 92nd over by claiming Brook’s wicket with the second new ball playing a crucial role in the process.
Brook departed for a score of 61(100). Hazlewood struck again by sending last Test hero Chris Woakes for a golden duck. England crossed the 500-run mark in the 96th over. Hazlewood made sure that Australia ended the session on a high note by picking up the wicket of Mark Wood on the final ball of the first session. Australia three down against England in their second innings on Day 3 of the ongoing 4th Ashes Test in Manchester. Mark Wood has taken two wickets while Chris Woakes has scalped one. Earlier, Zak Crawley scored 189 and Jonny Bairstow hit an unbeaten 99 as England posted 592 all out, taking a first innings lead of 275 runs over Australia. Josh Hazlewood was the pick of the bowlers for the guests with figures of 5 for 126.
