AUS Vs ENG Highlights, 2nd Ashes Test Day 3: All-Round Mitchell Starc Leaves England Reeling In Brisbane

Having harried England with the ball in this Ashes series prior to Saturday (December 6, 2025), Mitchell Starc did damage with the bat, too on Day 3 of the second test. At stumps in Brisbane, England were teetering on 134 for 6 in their second innings and still needed to score 43 runs to make Australia bat again. England skipper Ben Stokes and allrounder Will Jacks were both not out 4 at the end of play.

Starc was picked as Player of the Match for his 10-wicket haul in Australia's thumping eight-wicket win in the series opener at Perth. He's in line for another award in the pink-ball Test at the Gabba. After taking six wickets in England's first innings of 334 on Days 1 and 2, he scored an innings-high 77 as Australia responded with 511 runs, and then took two wickets in the night session.

For England, Brydon Carse was the pick of the bowlers with 4/152, and Stokes took three.
