Usman Khawaja scores first Ashes hundred in England; Stuart Broad dismisses David Warner for 15th time in Tests during electrifying twin strike at Edgbaston but also bowls Khawaja off no-ball - watch day three live on Sunday (10.15am on air, 11am first ball)

Usman Khawaja scored his first Ashes hundred away from home as a patient Australia profited from missed England chances to cut the hosts' lead to 82 on day two of the first Test at Edgbaston.

Khawaja (126no off 279) was incredibly emotional after clinching a 199-ball century - his fourth against England and 15th of his Test career - roaring with delight and hurling his bat into the air.

The opener's ton was crucial for Australia as they fought back from 67-3 to close on 311-5 in reply to England's 393-8 declared on day one, Khawaja sharing half-century stands with Travis Head (50 off 63), Cameron Green (38) and Alex Carey (52no).
