BIRMINGHAM, England : England extended their lead beyond 150 on the fourth morning of the opening Ashes test against Australia as Ben Stokes' risk-taking side again dictated a fast and furious tempo at a sunny Edgbaston on Monday.
Former England skipper Eoin Morgan has praised Australian batter Alex Carey who scored a crucial 52 (80)* in the first innings on the second day for the Ashes on Saturday. Usman Khawaja (126*) and Alex Carey's (52*) partnership led the charge with the bat as Australia managed to bounce back in the final session of Day 2 of the first Test match of the Ashes 2023 series on Saturday. Australia trailed by 82 runs, scoring 311/5. "I think it has been Australia's day. I would rather be sat in Australia's changing room right now and the difference for me has been Carey. You always expect an Australian to grind out some runs on this wicket. That impetus late on in the day and leading momentum into when the new ball came in from Khawaja and Carey was outstanding," Morgan told Sky Sports.
