After a rain-hit opening day of the third Ashes Test, Day 2 promises to be a vital one in the eventual result as England attempt to keep their chances of reclaiming the urn alive against Australia at Headingley. Join The Roar for live scores and coverage from 8pm (AEST).

Given the state of the game, Day 2 will be absolutely crucial for both sides, and after tough batting conditions marred the opening day’s play, the task is now on Australia to bowl just as well as England did.

With the pitch and overhead conditions playing right into the English attack’s hands, they skittled Australia for just 179, but it could have been a whole lot worse if not for 74 from Marnus Labuschagne, who was the last man out, and a fighting 61 from David Warner.

It’s a pitch where batsmen must ride their luck, but be confident in their ability to leave the ball and defend for long periods, wearing the bowlers down.

In saying that, the forecast for Day 2 is for no rain and less cloud cover, so the conditions for batting could well improve to the point where English skipper Joe Root is vindicated in his decision to bowl first, if he wasn’t already.

Australia are likely to give up a first innings lead defending only 179, but it’s about minimising the damage and exposing England’s somewhat vulnerable batting line-up.

Rory Burns has been a big part of their scoring in the first two Tests, and the conditions may well suit him again, but he has rode his luck, and Australia can’t afford him to score runs.

If they can get rid of Burns, Jason Roy and Joe Denly early and have a swinging, seaming ball at the middle order, then they are in with a real shot of staying competitive, however, if it turns into a long drag in the field, England may well be able to cash in on what will ba 98-over day of cricket.

Australia’s fielding will also be critical. If they can’t get it right and drop catches as they did at Lord’s, it’s only going to put more and more pressure on.
