His teammate Jofra Archer also caught the eye as the bowler took his maiden five-wicket haul in Tests.

However, England's score of 67 was their lowest against Australia in the Ashes since 1948.
 
Australia captain Tim Paine and his troops will be under pressure during the fourth Test match as the Baggy Greens look to regain the lead.
 
On the other hand, Joe Root, the England captain, will be hoping to lead the Poms to another Test victory.
