Description

In today’s episode we break down Day 1 of the second Ashes Test in Brisbane — a wild pink-ball ride that gave us drama, swing, momentum shifts… and one hell of a last-wicket fightback from England.


We get into:


• England post 323/9 after a huge 10th-wicket stand

• The impact of Will Jacks’ inclusion & England’s tactical shift

• Pink-ball conditions — movement, madness & moments under lights

• What Australia missed without Nathan Lyon

• And the big question… is 323 enough?


Then we look ahead to Day 2 — can England push beyond 350? How will Jacks be used with the ball? And is the evening session tomorrow where this Test will swing?


If you enjoy the episode, it would mean the world if you left us a 5★ review and shared it with someone who loves their Ashes cricket as much as we do!


All the best,

Wrighty & Barks
