Highlights, Ashes 2021-22, Australia vs England 3rd Test Day 2: Visitors in trouble, trail by 51 runs

Firstpost  

Check out LIVE score from the third Ashes Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Day 1 report: England’s earnest dressing-room discussions about improving shot selection failed to bear fruit on Sunday’s opening day of the third Ashes cricket Test, as shambolic batting delivered a Boxing Day feast of wickets for Australia at Melbourne Cricket Ground. World No.1-ranked bowler Cummins, spinner Nathan Lyon and left-arm quick Mitchell Starc combined to keep the pressure on England’s batters. A loose shot outside off stump by Root, a questionable cut by Ben Stokes, and a wild heave by Jos Buttler will attract heavy attention from England’s press after another difficult day for the tourists, who trail two-nil in the five-match series. Boland, who is only the second Indigenous player to represent Australia’s men’s test-cricket side, said Australia’s bowlers worked hard to make England’s batters play.
