England was 28-2 at the time, leading by 35 runs.

Openers Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett were dismissed by Australia's fast bowlers, who took advantage of favorable conditions.

Pat Cummins dismissed Duckett, and Crawley was out after edging a Scott Boland delivery to wicketkeeper Alex Carey.

The outlook for Monday is promising, with no rain expected.

Australia's first innings total was seven runs short of England's 393, with Usman Khawaja's innings ending when he was bowled for 141 by Ollie Robinson.
