Pre-Match Analysis:
England need to move on from the controversies that gained the attention in the 2nd Test. Ben Stokes’s tremendous resistance wasn’t enough for the hosts to level the series as they lost by 43 runs. Diminutive batter Ben Duckett hit twin half-centuries that show England’s top order is well settled. With Ollie Pope ruled out of the remainder of the Ashes, Harry Brook is likely to be moved up the order in the 3rd Test. They replaced James Anderson and Josh Tongue with Chris Woakes and Mark Wood respectively. All-rounder Moeen Ali too makes his return to the side. They need to get inspired from the 2019 Headingley Ashes Test where they won by thrilling one wicket.
Australians have doubled their standards and it’s tough for any side to beat them at the moment. Fast bowling skipper Pat Cummins is leading the troops in an impressive manner on and off the field. Their response in the 2nd Test was even more powerful earlier to their 2 wickets win at Edgbaston. They survived Ben Stokes’ brilliant 155 runs in the 4th innings at Lord’s and emerged victorious by 43 runs to take an unassailable lead of 2-0 in this ongoing Ashes. Even in the absence of their lead spinner Nathan Lyon for the most part of the match, their well-oiled fast bowling department delivered in the crunch moments. Todd Murphy is set to replace Nathan Lyon in the 3rd Test.
