Ashes Test at Edgbaston Resumes After Rain Delay, Australia Trails England by 144 Runs

The final day of the first Ashes test between England and Australia at Edgbaston is set to resume after an early lunch break, as rain has cleared.

The match is delicately poised with Australia on 107-3 in their second innings chasing a victory target of 281 to take a series lead.

England's Stuart Broad had a sensational spell on Monday and removed Marnus Labuschagne and Steve Smith, and Australia's opener Usman Khawaja scored a century in his side's first innings.

The match has been highly competitive, with England's 'Bazzball' tactics having Australia hanging on grimly for large chunks of the match.

The last day is expected to be exciting, with both teams having a genuine belief they can win.
