Ashes 2025-26: Starc Shines With Bat And Ball As Australia Take Control Of Second Test
At the end of the second day, Australia were 378/6 in response to England's first innings 334, and it looked like the visitors had fought their way back into the match. But Saturday was an altogether new day, and the hosts turned things in their favour by posting a massive total of 511 and by the end of the day, planted themselves firmly into the driver's seat by reducing England to 134/6 in the Pink-ball Test at the Gabba in Brisbane.
For the fans, this is like deja vu in many senses -- England will be going into the fourth day with four wickets in hand, just like Australia had on Friday evening. While the last four wickets added 133 runs to the hosts' score with Alex Carey scoring 63 and Mitchell Starc compiling 77 off 141 balls to help them take a 177-run lead, England will be looking to their remaining batters to add as many runs as possible to help the visitors make a match of it.
