Ashes 2017/18, 2nd Test: 5 things we learnt from the third day's play

#3 The Woakes-Overton fightback

England's fightback came through Woakes and Overton

Australia sliced through England's top and middle order with little difficulty early on day 3 but found the going tough against two obstinate lower order batsmen - Chris Woakes and Craig Overton. The duo showed stomach for a fight and resisted anything and everything thrown at them by the Aussie bowling attack.

Although they couldn't quite get England close to Australia's total, the 66-run partnership frustrated the Aussies and gave England an avenue to channelize a fightback. That, though, did not quite materialise as Woakes attempted to pull a Mitchell Starc short ball only to top edge it, the ball landing safely in the hands of the bowler.
