Relive our live and interactive coverage of day four of the third Ashes Test in Perth Australia is just five wickets away from regaining the Ashes urn after another dominant day at the Third Test in Perth. Peter Siddle celebrates after dismissing Ian Bell. AUSTRALIA is just five wickets away from regaining the Ashes but England finally put up a bit of resistance on day four of the third Test in Perth. The Aussies looked to be charging to victory when they reduced England to 4-121 as Kevin Pietersen holed out off Nathan Lyon. But a fighting partnership between Ian Bell (60) and Ben Stokes (72 n.o.) left England 253 runs shot of a miracle victory. Each of Australia's bowlers, including all-rounder Shane Watson, picked up a wicket each but the bowling group looked noticably tired late on Monday. Earlier, the hosts provided some of the best entertainment of the series as they piled on the runs before declaring with a lead of more than 500. Shane Watson belted a century off just 106 balls and George Bailey hit 28 runs off one James Anderson over to completely demoralise England's bowling attack.
