Ashley Giles and Simon Jones took three wickets each as England produced a clinical display to leave Australia in tatters in the third test yesterday at Old Trafford.

The home side, playing above themselves, took their first innings total to 444 just after lunch, then scythed through the world champions' batting, reducing them to 210 for seven by the close.

Shane Warne was 45 not out with Jason Gillespie at the other end. Giles took three for 66 and fast bowler Jones three for 30.

Earlier in the day, Brett Lee and Warne had taken four wickets apiece for the touring side.
