England's 8-match unbeaten streak in Edgbaston (Tests) also came to an end with the defeat. For England, Chris Woakes (37) scored maximum runs before being dismissed by Cummins. Earlier, Steve Smith announced his stunning Test comeback, smashing centuries in both the innings. Matthew Wade (110) also showed brilliance in Australia second innings.

Can we review that shot please !!!! #Ashes
— Michael Vaughan (@MichaelVaughan) August 5, 2019 - 16:48 (IST)OUT!OUT! Jason Roy took to much of risk here and ended up losing his wicket. He was looking fine at 28 but loses patience at the end. Trying to smash Lyon out of the park, he danced down the track but misses the ball completely in the process. The ball kisses the stumps as Roy departs.
