Ashes 4th Test, Day 1 Highlights: It was a day marred by persistent rain in Sydney as Australia reached 126/3 at the end of Day 1. David Warner and Marcus Harris put a 51-run stand for the first wicket before Stuart Broad struck the breakthrough, removing Warner for the 13th time in Test cricket.
Harris and Marnus Labuschagne, then, put up a gritty stand of 60 runs for the second wicket. Harris' 109-ball innings came to an end courtsey of James Anderson, while Mark Wood dismissed Labuschagne (28) soon after as England made a comeback in the game. Earlier, Australia captain Pat Cummins won the toss and chose to bat Wednesday in the fourth Ashes test at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
