Before day four gets under way in Sydney, England's Twenty20 captain Paul Collingwood announces he will retire from Test cricket after this match, his 68th since making his debut in 2003
Matt Prior resumes on 54 not out and eases his way to his first Ashes ton and England's ninth this series, off only 109 balls, as the tourists' lead stretches to more than 300
Tim Bresnan plays solidly at the other end and helps Prior put on a century stand for the eighth wicket (following 154 and 107 for the sixth and seventh wickets) before falling for 35 to Mitchell Johnson
Australia skipper Michael Clarke talks to umpire Billy Bowden after the dismissal of Matt Prior was referred to check for a no ball, but Prior departs for 118 from 130 balls
Graeme Swann bashes 33 from 23 balls, including one six, as England continue to dominate the bowling, with Mitchell Johnson conceding 20 runs off one over in his 4-168
England reach 636-9 at lunch to equal their joint-highest total down under; they add eight more after the interval to beat the 636-8 declared achieved by the 1928-29 tourists and secure a massive 364-run lead
Shane Watson starts impressively and reaches 38 off 40 balls, but he is run out by the length of the pitch after a terrible mix-up with fellow opener Phillip Hughes
Six runs later and Bresnan produces a superb delivery which Hughes edges behind and a diving Prior just manages to hold on to dismiss the left-hander for an unlucky 13
Debutant Usman Khawaja struggles for runs and is out for 21 when James Anderson, the leading wicket-taker of the series, induces a nick behind to claim his 22nd victim down under
Anderson is bowling beautifully and adds to his tally with the wicket of skipper Clarke for 41 and Australia are 124-4, still 240 behind England's first innings total
Mike Hussey, Australia's last hope of avoiding another innings defeat, is caught by Pietersen in the gully for 12 as Bresnan proves his value once again
Chris Tremlett joins the party by dismissing Brad Haddin with a delivery that rises sharply and hits the top of the bat, and England are well and truly into the tail now
Next ball and Tremlett is on a hat-trick after removing Johnson first ball with a wicked inswinger, but Peter Siddle survives, and Australia take the match into the final day
With just three wickets needed on the final day, and free admission, another bumper crowd of England supporters are expected to turn up again at the SCG
