Ashes 2013: Video Highlights from Day Three at Trent Bridge

If people thought that the drama of the first two days of this Ashes series could not be repeated, then they were wrong.

Day Three, like its predecessors, threw up drama of the highest order, with an evening session scandal sure to live long in the memory. 

England closed the day 326-6, with a lead of 261 and in a position of some strength. However, such a position was only attainable thanks to a fantastic backs-to-the-wall partnership between Ian Bell and Stuart Broad, who came together when the match was very much in the balance. 

Australia took almost the whole of the first hour to make their first inroad of the day, when Kevin Pietersen dragged a wide James Pattinson delivery onto his stumps. Partnerships threatened to blossom but never actually did, as Australia bowled with discipline and control throughout the day. And the build-up of pressure took its toll. 

The day will be remembered, however, for an incident involving Broad and the umpire Aleem Dar. Broad, batting at the time, edge a ball from Ashton Agar to first slip, where it was caught by Michael Clarke. Dar, however, ruled that it was not out, and Australia—with no reviews remaining—were unable to challenge him.

The decision stood despite Broad clearly having hit it, sparking another controversial debate about the Spirit of Cricket and whether Broad should've "walked" and given himself out.
