David Warner and Marnus Labuschagne had taken Australia to 113/1 at Lunch on day two at the Gabba, and England had to ensure they latched onto any remote chance that came their way on the other side of the break. It was not the case, however, as Rory Burns dropped a dolly to let the well-set Warner off again after Ben Stokes bowled him off a no-ball early in the innings. Joe Root and his men are certainly not doing themselves any favour by bungling these opportunities given Australia are about to wipe off the deficit and would look to pile up the runs moving forward.
What a chance!
