Pitch Report- It was the day for the bowlers on Day 1 and the same we can expect on Day 2. Australian bowlers will have to utilise all the condition and ensure that England does not score high runs. However, slight sunshine also has something to offer to batsmen, therefore it will be interesting to see what the track at Headingley will offer on Day 2.
