DAVID Warner's second century of the series has put Australia in a tremendous position at stumps on day three of the third Ashes Test.
Warner belted 112 off just 140 balls at the WACA Ground, helping Australia to 3-235 at the close of play, with Steve Smith (5 n.o.) and Shane Watson (23 n.o.) at the crease.

Warner earlier combined with Chris Rogers to notch the first century opening stand of the series, piling on the pain for England, who were without stirke bowler Stuart Broad due to a foot injury.
Broad sustained the injury when being dismissed lbw by Mitchell Johnson, who picked up two wickets on Sunday and was well supported by Ryan Harris and Peter Siddle, who also picked up a pair of scalps each on day three.
England was bowled out for 251, and is now facing a run-chase in excess of 400 for a highly unlikely victory.
