Ben Duckett led the way for England with the bat on Day 2 of the second Ashes Test

In reply to Australia's 416, English openers gave their side a decent start with a 91-run stand in just 17.5 overs. Both Zak Crawley (48) and Ben Duckett (98) played positively from the outset and were especially aggressive against Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood.

Nathan Lyon broke the promising partnership in the 18th over by dismissing Crawley. Duckett then motored along with Ollie Pope (42), putting in 97 runs for the second wicket. England looked in a great position with the duo at the crease in flow at 188/1 after 38 overs.

Australian bowlers resorted to short ball strategy at this juncture, which reaped them rich dividends. Ollie Pope, Ben Duckett, and Joe Root departed in quick succession as Australia clawed back into the contest. Ben Stokes 17*(57) then went into defensive mode and stayed unbeaten till the stumps. Harry Brook 45*(51) kept him company with a contrasting knock at the other end.
