400

Usman Khawaja and Cameron Green have kept five-down Australia alive in chase of 281 against England on Day 5 of the first Ashes Test. 

Australia needed 98 runs to win while going for Tea. 

On the other hand, England bowlers are eyeing some quick wickets in order to clinch a victory. Australia were making steady progress at 78 for 1 in pursuit of a victory target of 281 when Stuart Broad removed both Marnus Labuschagne and Steve Smith -- the world's two top-ranked Test batsmen -- 

to leave the Ashes holders 89 for 3. On Tuesday, Broad got the wicket of Scott Boland while Moeen Ali dismissed Travis Head.
