Then, 10 minutes before the interval, Moeen found enough spin to turn one past Labuschagne’s inside edge and win an lbw decision via DRS. Broad saw a loose first ball slapped for four by his old rival David Warner, but was soon celebrating England’s first success when a full delivery from round the wicket pinned Usman Khawaja deep in crease. Smith and Labuschagne scored with greater freedom as Australia moved to 107 for two at the lunch break, Moeen’s first two-over burst costing 17, but England applied the brakes well in the following session.
