Check out the state of play at the end of play at the WACA in Perth.
Australia has steam-rolled England on their way to another impressive day’s play for the home side as they finished on 235-3, a overall lead of 369 at the WACA.
Everything that could have gone wrong did for Alastair Cook and his men, with dropped catches, missed stumping chances combined with a possible broken foot for key bowler Stuart Broad and a century to David Warner rounding out a miserable day for the away team.
