Second Test, Australia v England, 4-8 December 2025

[QF WP]

What’s that…Carse gives catching practice to Carey. Out for the 4th duck of the innings.

Didn’t have time for a photo .

9/264

Not a bad crowd number for the first day:

 

[QF WP]

Jofra Archer is throwing his bat. A 6 off Boland and then skied one that fell between the keeper and fine leg. Then another 6. Boland not bowling his line

 

[QF WP]

Just announced that play will continue until 9:30pm as the Aussies haven’t bowled minimum overs in the day.

Jofra hits another 6, over Cameron Green’s head, odd Starc. Then a 4. He’s now the 3rd highest scorer.

The joys of getting home from a full stadium. Lines for the shuttle buses to town were really long - much longer than after an AFL match. Took 2.5 hours and arrived at midnight. Thankfully don’t have to get up early tomorrow
