Ashes 2021-22, Australia vs England, 4th Test, Day 2 Highlights: Usman Khawaja scored a sublime 137 as Australia declared their innings at 416/8. England in reply were 13/0 at Stumps on Day 2.
Having already conceded the series after three successive defeats, England suffered the latest blow just hours after the tourists planned to draft former one-day captain Adam Hollioake into the team's coaching staff, stated media reports here.
Head is asymptomatic and will remain in Melbourne with his partner for seven days as per the Victorian government's health requirements.
With Hazlewood on his way to peak fitness, Australia will have six in-form pace bowlers and one spinner to pick their squad and the selectors will have some "hard conversations" when they sit down to pick the squad. Skipper Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Jhye Richardson, Scott Boland, and Michael Neser are the pacers on the selectors' list for the next Test.
England were bundled out for 68 in their second innings on day 3 as Australia notched up an innings and 14 runs win in the third Test to take an unassailable 3-0 lead in the five-Test Ashes series.
At lunch on Sunday’s first day of play, Boland received some friendly advice from Australia assistant coach Andrew McDonald to add speed to his run-up.
The massive victory means Australia retains the Ashes, with a 3-0 lead in the five-match series.
Ponting also slammed England skipper Joe Root, Stokes and Jos Buttler for the manner of their dismissals in the first innings of the Boxing Day Test which the two-time World Cup winning captain believes was "inexcusable".
"Our players have been given the all clear to play today and have arrived at the ground," England Cricket tweeted.
Root, with 1,680 runs, moved ahead of Smith, who had scored 1,656 runs as the captain of the Proteas in 2008.
Hazlewood, who had taken three wickets in the opening Test against England, missed the second and third matches in Adelaide and Melbourne, due to the injury which was earlier believed to be a "side strain".
Despite the efforts put in by Root and No.3 batter Dawid Malan, runs have been scarce for the tourists, giving their bowlers little chance to claw things back.
Cummins had gone out for a dinner with his friend Harry Conway, who plays for BBL franchise Adelaide Strikersk, at a restuarant in Adelaide ahead of the second Test when a patron at the nearby table was identified as a Covid positive case.
Boland was brought in as cover earlier this week and received the starting nod when fellow fast bowlers Jhye Richardson and Michael Neser were ruled out because of muscle soreness.
