BIRMINGHAM, England : England extended their lead beyond 150 on the fourth morning of the opening Ashes test against Australia as Ben Stokes' risk-taking side again dictated a fast and furious tempo at a sunny Edgbaston on Monday.
Beginning the day precariously-placed on 28 for two in their second innings after Sunday's rain-shortened action, a lead of 35, Root launched an audacious early attack. Initially bamboozled by England's latest 'Bazball' salvo, Australia struck back with Cummins flattening Ollie Pope's off stump with a superb inswinger to leave the hosts 77-3.
