 A bigger surprise was the return of Chris Tavare who had not appeared for England in over five years, and his selection appeared to some to be a sign of increasing desperation on the part of the English selectors.Dean Jones inspired Australia to another big first innings score of 424 with a superb 157, and England only narrowly avoided the follow-on creeping to 242 with a rusty Ian Bothom top scoring with 46.The highlight of the match for England was the first ever test wicket for debutant Angus Fraser who finally captured the wicket of Steve Waugh (undismissed in the first two tests) giving him a series average of 393.00.
