    Ashes 2025-26: Weatherald, Labuschagne, Smith Fifties Help Australia Take Early Lead In 2nd Test

    By IANS News December 05, 2025 • 20:32 PM View: 261

    Australia’s batters made full use of England’s inconsistent bowling before a late fightback under lights kept the second Test in the balance at the Gabba. By stumps, Australia were 378/6, holding a 44-run lead after a frenetic day in which three home batters – Jake Weatherald, Marnus Labuschagne and Steve Smith – made half-centuries.

    England began the day by adding 70 for the tenth wicket as Joe Root (138 not out) and Jofra Archer (38) extended their stand. Archer’s innings ended when he flicked Brendan Doggett to deep backward square, where Marnus Labuschagne completed a diving catch. England were all out for 334.
