Highlights: Australia’s Travis Head and Pat Cummins managed to play out the late onslaught from England spinner Jack Reach, as they played out the remaining overs on the final day of the Test. Australia reached 154/6, and the match went to a draw. The visitors maintained 1-0 lead in the series. Jofra Archer took two wickets and struck Test cricket’s first concussion substitute, Marnus Labuschagne on the grille of his helmet. David Warner’s miserable series continued when the left-hander fell for five -- his fourth single-figure in as many innings -- when he edged Archer to Rory Burns in the slips. Earlier, Ben Stokes, missed twice on Saturday and the beneficiary of an Australia decision not to review a rejected lbw appeal, scored 115 not out before captain Joe Root declared England’s second innings on 258-5, setting them, a target of 250 to win.
