Marcus Harris failed to convert a promising start and his torrid run continues. Stuart Broad angled one in full from round the wicket and got it to nip away, with Harris punching only to offer a thick edge that is gobbled up by a diving Jos Buttler. This was England’s second wicket of the day as Michael Neser was bowled through the bat-pad gap by James Anderson with a lovely nip-backer. The visitors are on fire today, but the catchers have let the bowlers down again, with the wicketkeeper letting Steve Smith off the hook on the very first ball he faced.
That is SOME CATCH! The tourists claim two quick wickets to start the day! 😳
