Australia coach Darren Lehmann hints that David Warner could be recalled for the third Ashes Test against England at Old Trafford.

Australia coach Darren Lehmann has suggested that David Warner could be recalled for the third Ashes Test against England at Old Trafford.

The batsman was recently sent to join the Australia 'A' squad in South Africa to gain some form after being suspended for punching England's Joe Root.

Warner scored 193 for the tourists during his time away and has now flown back ahead of the match at Old Trafford.

"He got 193 and played well, did exactly what we wanted him to do," Sky Sports News quotes Lehmann as saying.

"We want blokes to make hundreds, and he's ticked that box. We'll have to look at the wicket and what we come up with in the top six."

The third Ashes Test between England and Australia gets underway on Thursday.
