Leeds, Aug 24. The English batsmen have their task cut-out as the Australians have set them a target of 359 on the third morning of the third Ashes Test between England and Australia at Headingley on Saturday. After capitulating for just 67 in their first innings, they started well in the chase as they went into the lunch interval with the score on 11/0, needing another 348 to win the Test and level the series.

At Lunch, while Rory Burns was unbeaten on 5, Jason Roy gave him company at 6 as the Australian bowlers bowled four overs before the first session came to an end. Tim Paine did introduce Nathan Lyon to bowl an over before the break, but the English openers played him out.
