betvisa casinoAshes 2023 [WATCH]: Joe Root gets out to an in-dipping delivery from Josh Hazlewood during Manchester Test

England batters showcased brilliant on-field prowess on Day 2 of the fourth Ashes 2023 Test after bundling out Australia for 317 on 90.2 overs. England 𓄧finished the day on a score of 384 wiꦑth a lead of 67 runs and six wickets still in hand.

Resuming their innings on 299/8, Australia added valuable 18 runs to their total before being bowled out by the hosts. Chris Woakes emerged as the most successful bowler for the English side, bagging an impressive fifer for his team. Stuart Broad also ended with two scalps to his name.

In reply, England lost one of their opener Ben Duckett quite early with just 9 runs on the board. However, Zak Crawley and Moeen Ali then stood up to web a 121-run stand for the second wicket, pushing the Aussie side on the back foot. Moeen contributed 54 runs off 82 delive💛ries, while Crawley slammed a sensational 189 runs supported by 21 fours and 3 sixes.

After the dismissal of Moeen, Crawley found able support in Joe Root, who added 84 runs. Although the England opener looked well set, he failed to convert his score into a double ton and was dismissed by Cameron Green. On the other hand, Root also missed out on a well-deserved hundred, falling prey to Josh Hazlewood’s unplayable delivery. Root’s dismissal came in a really disappo♏inting manner, and the disbelief was clearly visible on the face of the right-handed batter as he took some ti🔯me to leave the ground.

It all happened on the first ball of the 62nd over when Hazlew𝔉ood produced a length ball, and it kept very low with Root not being able to get down on time and the red-leather sneaking in from the toe end of the former England skipper’s bat to cr💟ash into the stumps. Root was seen extremely surprised by the in-dipping delivery from the Australian seamer.
