Exclusive from @danbrettig … Usman Khawaja has told teammates he is going to retire after the Sydney Test. smh.com.au/sport/cricket/…

Wickets and records have tumbled on a dramatic day at the MCG as a packed house was treated to an unforgettable start to the Boxing Day Test. @samdjodan #9News

How does the King of Adelaide celebrate retaining the urn? It’s been a big 24 hours for Travis Head and all of our Ashes stars…The inside word on the Aussie party and those RonBall shirts coming up. @9NewsAdel @9NewsAUS

Australian spinner Nathan Lyon is undergoing scans on his hamstring injury at an Adelaide hospital as we speak. Arrived here on crutches having already been ruled out of the remainder of the Third Test, his availability for rest of series also in major peril. @9NewsAUS @wwos

Usman Khawaja will not play in Adelaide. Cummins and Lyon return for Doggett and Neser. @wwos @9NewsAUS

Usman Khawaja has been ruled OUT of the second #Ashes Test. The team says he’s succumbed to his back injury. @9NewsAUS @wwos

Steve Smith said he’s going to bat with black stickers under his eyes to help with vision under lights, like we see in baseball and NFL. Is the world ready for this look? @wwos @9NewsAUS

Just in: Josh Hazlewood back bowling in Sydney today 👀 Cummins also bowling with a pink ball ... @samdjodan smh.com.au/sport/cricket/…

Our #Ashes preview with @tomdecent and @samdjodan youtu.be/PXZoV7ysEuI?si…

And now he’s warming up. What a ride.

Mark Wood watching on at England’s first session at Perth Stadium. Not a good sign for his chances of playing in the first Test. @wwos @9NewsAUS

Steve Smith just threw Pat a pink ball. Cracked himself up.

Great signs if you’re Australian. Pat Cummins working through his session at the SCG this morning. It’s been a solid block of bowling.

Breaking. Aus Ashes squad. Weatherald in. No Konstas. No Renshaw. No Marsh. Doggett in. Abbott in.

Relief for the Panthers. Nathan Cleary made it through their captain's run without issue on his groin injury and will take on the Bulldogs tomorrow night. @9NewsSyd @NRLonNine

Marnus Labuschagne is favoured to join Usman Khawaja at the top of the order and tip out Sam Konstas when Australia faces South Africa to bid for back-to-back World Test Championship titles at Lord’s next month theage.com.au/sport/cricket/…

Who would have thought, hey? A long piece. A lot to cover. It was good for the both of us. I respect the apology. smh.com.au/sport/rugby-un…

Jason Sangha made himself a legendary figure in South Australia with his mighty #SheffieldShield-winning knock and he's now on the cusp of an Australia A call-up. But his path from a teenage sensation compared with Sachin Tendulkar has not been smooth theage.com.au/sport/cricket/…
