The highly anticipated third Ashes Test between England and Australia is set to start on Wednesday, June 28, at Headingley in Leeds. Australia go into this match with a commanding 2-0 lead in the five-match series, placing them in a favorable position to clinch the series in Leeds itself. The tension in this gripping series has been further heightened by Jonny Bairstow’s controversial dismissal at the Lord’s Test. This incident has added to the already intense atmosphere as the teams prepare to compete on what is considered the most challenging and hostile ground in England.
