The 2nd Ashes Test is here, and after two weeks of mulling over a disastrous defeat, England will be looking to hit back in Brisbane.
The Gabba hasn’t been a happy hunting ground for the Poms, with just four wins at the ground in their history and none since 1986. Can Mitchell Starc wreak havoc on their batting line-up once again?

What is the ‘Gabbatoir’?
You’ll hear people talk about the Gabba, that’s the gladiatorial stadium located in Brisbane where England and Australia will fight to the (metaphorical) death in Test 2.
On top of that you’ll hear people refer to it as ‘the Gabbatoir’, an amalgamation of the words ‘Gabba’ and ‘abattoir’. This is because the England team have not won in Brisbane since 1986.
Yep, they’re really implying it will be a slaughterhouse for the visiting team!
Welcome to Brisbane!
Coverage of Test 2 is now live directly from Brisbane’s Gabba Stadium!
Thanks for joining us for the second chapter of this epic annual saga between Australia and England.
While it may have been a humiliating defeat for the English side, will they have learnt from their mistakes or will Australia dominate on their home turf?
Keep tuned to find out…
Welcome to the 2nd Ashes Test! Can England hit back?
Welcome to our live coverage of the Ashes 2nd Test between Australia and England.
Blink and the first Test was over, so we will be hoping for a bit more cricket this time around as England look to hit back against Australia. A magical knock from Travis Head took the game away from the Poms in Perth, with their batting frailties in Australia once again on show.
Ben Stokes will be hoping that the two weeks away have given his side time to refresh as they look to win a first Test in Oz since 2011.
