OUT! Caught. Travis Head to Adil Rashid. Off break length ball, off stump down the track Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long on, caught by Labuschagne. All out! That's the end of the first innings. England posted a good score on the board. Ben Duckett missed his century by five runs, and Will Jacks also played responsibly and scored a half-century. The lower middle-order batters added some valuable runs for their team. Australia made a new plan, and the part-time bowlers played a massive role on the side. Adam Zampa and Marnus Labuschagne picked three wickets each. Can Australia chase down the target? Let's see. Do join us for the run chase in another 30 minutes.
