Mitchell Starc is once again doing the job for Australia, but this time with the bat. The quick is helping the hosts build a solid first-innings lead after Alex Carey took advantage of a second chance.

Brisbane

During the Brisbane Ashes Test, Australia gained the upper hand against England through a combination of solid batting and resilient tail-end partnerships. Alex Carey scored his 14th Test half-century and went on to make 63 runs, capitalizing on an early dropped catch by England.

England's fielding had mixed fortunes, with Ben Duckett dropping a catch but later contributing to a highlight-reel moment. Despite efforts from Ben Stokes and Gus Atkinson, Australia's lower order, including Mitchell Starc and Scott Boland, frustrated England with a 34-run stand, leaving England with missed opportunities to take control.
