England will be looking to bounce back in the Ashes after a defeat in the opening game against Australia in what was a fascinating contest of cricket. The hosts have been brilliant to watch in this format ever since the appointment of Brendon McCullum as the head coach and it was possibly the first time in his reign that they somewhat looked short of ideas and the credit has to be given to the Australians who built on to the momentum gained post lifting the World Test Championship. The second Ashes test at Lord’s will be a challenge once again for both the teams but it remains the zenith of test cricket.

Josh Tongue has been roped in by England to replace Moeen Ali in the team and his presence should aid their bowling attack. The form of Ben Duckett is a cause for concern and the English opener will have to find a way to apply himself in. Joe Root and Ollie Pope are the main players in the middle order and they will be expected to do the bulk of the scoring here as well.
Mitchell Starc will be pushing for a place in the playing eleven but the Australian management just might give Scott Boland another chance.

Nathan Lyon makes the record of playing 100 consecutive tests today and all eyes will be on the mercurial spinner.
