Hello! Welcome to India TV Live Blog. Australian bowlers once again gave England batsmen trouble in the fifth and final match of the Ashes Test series, with their first innings reduced to just 188 runs on day two. A total of 17 wickets fell in the second day of the day-and-night match, including four in Australia’s first innings and three in the second innings. Australia started the day with six wickets for 241 runs, but their first innings were down to 303 runs before dinner. During England’s opening innings, captain Pat Cummins took four for 45 and Mitchell Starc took three wickets for 53 runs to give the team a massive 115-run lead. Scott Boland (one wicket for 33 runs) was out of luck and Chris Woakes (36) caught his ball twice on slips. Cameron Green (1 for 45) got the spot for rookie Sam Billings, who scored 29 runs. England pacemakers Stuart Broad and Mark Wood pitched in the same second innings as the Australian quartet, helping the home team go 37-for-3 in the day and night test on the stumps. Australia’s total lead has risen to 152 runs and they have seven wickets remaining. At the stumps, Steve Smith was playing at the 17-yard line and Scott Boland scored three runs. As in the first innings, David Warner was also unable to open the account in the second innings. He was dismissed on Broad’s third ball in the first over of the innings. Following this, Marnus Labuschagne became a victim of Chris Woakes after scoring five runs. Wood caught Usman Khawaja (11) behind the wicket on a short ball.
