Ashes: Australia continues to build pressure on England

England might not be able to salvage the first Ashes test match as Australia continues their pounding on day two in Brisbane. Travis Head’s quick ton of 85-ball helped Australia build a 196-run lead, as Head hit his third quickest century in Ashes. David Warner came close to a century posting 94 runs in the end while Marnus Labuschagne’s 74 helped the hosts to 343-7.

England bundled out quickly on Day one posting just 147 runs from their first inning but Ollie Robinson’s successive strikes did curtail Australia from building a much bigger lead still the chance of England making a comeback seems slim, they face a tough task as soon as Australia finish batting. Robinson was the one to watch from England’s performance at Gabba, where they have failed to post a win in the last 35 years.
