Joe Root dismissed Australian century-maker Marnus Labuschagne but rain returned to Old Trafford to frustrate England's hopes of forcing a series-levelling win in the fourth Test on Saturday. Only 30 overs had been bowled during the fourth day when the wet weather swept back in during the revised tea break. Play was officially abandoned for the day at 1727 GMT. Australia are 214-5 in their second innings, still 61 runs behind England, who scored 592 in their first innings. Labuschagne was the only Australia batsman to lose his wicket on Saturday, but not before he had kept England at bay with an innings of 111 -- his first Test century on English soil.
