Joe Root and Harry Brook produced a superb fightback to put England on top after a rain-hit opening day of the fifth and final Ashes Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground. The pair added an unbroken 154-run stand to lift England to 211 for 3 after early losses left them struggling at 57 for 3.
Root remained unbeaten on 72, while Brook was 78 not out, as they counter-attacked Australia’s all-pace bowling attack. Bad light ended play before tea, with rain and lightning preventing any further action on the day.
