London: Although he hasn’t shone in the batting yet in the Ashes series, there is a question that fans are asking following seeing what Aussie player Marnes Labuschagne did while batting on the first day of the second Test. Labusche is so simple. Incidentally, while trying to put his helmet back on following a drinks break during the batting, Labuschein’s chewing gum fell from his hand onto the pitch below.

But the fans are now raising the question following watching the video of Labuschein who took it off the pitch and put it straight in his mouth. Labuschagne, who entered the Ashes as the number one in the ICC rankings, lost his top spot following failing to shine in both the innings of the first Test. In the first Test of the Ashes series, Labuschagne became a golden duck in the first innings and disappointed with 13 runs in the second innings. With this, former England captain Joe Root overtook Labuschagne and became the first in the ranking. Kane Williamson was second while Labuschagne was third.

In the first innings of the second Test, Labuschagne returned with the wicket of Ollie Robinson, scoring 47 runs. With Steve Smith scoring a century and Travis Head a half-century, Labuschagne is likely to go further down in the next ICC rankings. Currently, Head is fourth and Smith is sixth. Pakistan captain Babar Azam is at the fifth position.

In response to Australia’s first innings score of 416 runs in the second Test of the Ashes series, England stopped the game with a score of 278-4 in the first innings on the second day. Harry Brook with 45 runs and captain Ben Stokes with 17 runs are at the crease.

England lost the wickets of Ben Duckett who scored 98 runs, Zach Crowley who scored 48 runs, Ollie Pope who scored 42 runs and Joe Root who scored 10 runs. England still need 138 runs to match the Aussie score with six wickets remaining.
