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

Cummins to Root, out Caught by Carey!! Once again it's Cummins who has got Root. The 13th time in Tests. Root's nemesis gets him again. It's that good length delivery outside off, Root plays a nothing shot, prods at it, edges it behind. Was on the 6th-stump channel. Root is livid with himself. Punches his bat hard after seeing Carey take it and curses himself. He takes his time to go off the field. That was a poor shot and he knows it. Could have left that. The face was open and he was trying to run it down, that's his scoring area but also causes his downfall this time. Root c Carey b Cummins 39(63) [4s-5]
