The crucial fourth test in the 2023 Ashes series, between England and Australia, commenced on Wednesday 19th July.
The England team would think that they had done well to restrict Australia to 299 for 8, on a fairly easy-paced pitch.
Despite the fact, that Chris Broad celebrated his 600th test wicket, it was Chris Woakes who starred with the ball, picking up 4 for 52.
Most of the Aussie batsmen got starts, with Mitchell Marsh and Labuschagne top scoring with 51 apiece.
England would be hoping to get the two remaining wickets early on day two and make a solid response, enough to take the Australian team out of the game.
Summarized scores: Australia 299 for 8 (Labuschagne 51, Marsh 51, Woakes 4-52, Broad 2-68) vs England
