In a captain versus captain battle, Pat Cummins cleaned up Ben Stokes in an otherwise tough bowling innings for Australia.
Cummins, who is leaking runs at an economy of above five, bowled an inswinger to Stokes in the 84th over. The England captain heaved it across the line, however, missed the ball all ends up as it went on to shatter the stumps.
While Stokes had already scored a fifty before getting dismissed, it has been an uneventful Test for Cummins, who has claimed only a single wicket in the ongoing match so far.
His poor performance has hurt Australia significantly as Cummins and Co. are close to conceding a lead of 200 runs.

Meanwhile, England are dictating terms at the Emirates Old Trafford. After their bowlers inflicted Australia's collapse and bundled the visitors for 317, Zak Crawley's impressive 189 has pivoted them to a 189-run lead.
At lunch on Day 3, England are at 506/8 with Jonny Bairstow batting on 41 runs.
