Ashes 2017: 2nd Test, day 4, 5 things we learnt from the day

CA XI v England - Four Day Tour Match: Day 1
The Root - Malan partnership put England right back in the match

#4 Australia cleaned up for 138

1st Test - Australia v South Africa: Day 2
Marsh couldn't repeat the heroics of the previous innings

Pumped up to scythe through England, Australia found themselves in testing waters after being reduced to four down in no time on day 3. Althoug Shaun Marsh and Tim Paine threatened to put on a first innings-like partnership, it did not quite happen with Anderson in fine rhythm.

The hosts found little support form the lower order as their bankable batsmen departed in a hurry. Neither Starc nor Cummins could not showcase their batting prowess as England gained an ever-so-small grip on the game.
