AUSTRALIA need 201 runs to win the fourth Ashes Test as spinner Nathan Lyon celebrated his 100th Test scalp and a five wicket haul on day three at the MCG.
Aussie openers Chris Rogers (18) and David Warner (12) will begin again on Sunday morning, having faced eight overs on Saturday afternoon to steer Australia to 0-30.
England collapsed on Saturday and was all out for 179 in its second innings - setting the home side a target of 231.
Australia resumed this morning at 9-164 and was all out for 204 chasing England's first innings of 255.

The visitors looked on top early at 0-54, but lost their last five wickets for just six runs.
Kevin Pietersen (49) was solid for the English before he lofted a Lyon delivery to Ryan Harris in the deep.
The maligned batsman gained few Aussie fans at the MCG after a verbal spat with fast bowler Mitchell Johnson, who again could do no wrong.
Johnson was angered - along with a fair few of the almost 64,000-strong MCG crowd - when Pietersen pulled out of his stance midway through a delivery, prompting the fast bowler to throw the ball past the batsman to the slips. A heated discussion followed.
Lyon took 5-50 off 17 overs - his 100th Test wicket was Stuart Broad, who was caught by Michael Clarke at slip.

Harris and Shane Watson appeared to be nursed through the day.
Harris (0-34) , who has a chronic knee issue, left the MCG after sending down just two overs in the morning, but returned soon after and bowled 10 overs for the day.
Watson (0-13) had groin soreness on Day 1 and bowled just four overs, looking uncomfortable in the field.
Johnson was pivotal again with his three wickets just after the start.
After snaring the crucial scalp of England captain Alastair Cook (51) lbw after lunch, he threw down the stumps fielding at midoff to have Joe Root (15) run out.
But he wasn't done.

Ian Bell was out for a duck, lobbing a Lyon delivery directly to yes, Johnson, at midoff.
Cook surpassed 8000 runs posting his half century off 60 balls.
Earlier Root was given out edging to the keeper only for the England No.3 to review and have the decision overturned after both Hot Spot and Snicko failed to detect an edge.
Steve Smith copped a Michael Carberry sweep shot in the left hand while fielding at short leg. It'd be harsh to call it a chance and Smith was forced from the field for treatment but he returned a few overs later.
Peter Siddle had Carberry, who made an agonising 12 off 81 balls, trapped lbw.
Brad Haddin (65) and Lyon (18 not out) batted for about 45 minutes on the morning of day three to improve Australia's first innings total.
