On the other hand, Australia got off to a shaky start on Day 2 losing David Warner and Marnus Labuschagne in consecutive deliveries. Steven Smith did get himself in but could not carry on as he was caught plumb in front of the wicket and at that point, the visitors looked to be in a spot of bother. However, Usman Khawaja stood firm and forged stands with first Travis Head and then Cameron Green to resurrect the inning. Khawaja stroked his way to a well-compiled hundred and stitched another unbeaten partnership with Alex Carey who managed to reach his fifty. Trailing by 82 runs, the Aussies would want this pair to bat well and take them to parity. Who are you backing to take the first-innings lead? Stick around, as the first ball on Day 3 is not far away.
