Ashes 2017: 2nd Test, day 1, 5 things we learnt from the day

#3 Chris Woakes' day out

Woakes was tight with his lines and was rewarded with the scalp of Warner

It wasn't the ideal start for England but it turned better when Moeen Ali misfielded, and Chris Woakes ran out Cameron Bancroft after 14 overs. The 33-run partnership was broken and England had broken through courtesy a lucky break in the field. That said, Woakes should be credited for observing and making use of the opportunity to effect a direct hit and catch Bancroft short.

Almost as many overs later, it was Woakes who once again struck for the English. A set David Warner is as dangerous as it gets and Woakes cramped him for room with his lines and eked out an outside edge from a non-existent cut shot. Woakes nearly had Usman Khawaja caught off a threatening bouncer but Mark Stoneman dropped a sitter at long-leg.
