England vs Australia, 2nd Test Lord's Day 5

Hello and welcome to our live coverage of Day 5 of the 2nd Ashes Test between England and Australia at Lord’s on Saturday

England vs Australia, Day 4 recap

Australia‘s Steve Smith returned to make 92 after a sickening blow to the neck before England captain Joe Root fell for the first golden duck of his Test career as Pat Cummins took two wickets in two balls on a dramatic fourth day of the second Ashes 2019 clash at Lord’s on Saturday.

Peter Siddle too chipped in with too vital wickets of Joe Denly and Rory Burns to finish with figures of 2/19 in his 8 overs.

England were 96/4 in their second innings – a lead of 104 runs – when rain forced an early close on Saturday.

But with more than 98 overs scheduled for the last day, Australia know early wickets on Sunday could leave them with time enough to press for a victory that would put them 2-0 up in a five-match series.
