Australia dictated the terms on Day 1 of the 2nd Test match at the iconic Lord’s. Travis Head played yet another cracker of a knock against England. Travis Head scored 77 runs in 73 balls and struck 14 fours.
Australia’s score at the end of Day 1 was 339 for the loss of 5 wickets. The star spinner Steve Smith has looked untroubled and has scored an unbeaten knock of 85 runs in 149 balls and would be keen to smash yet another ton at Lord’s

England needs to restrict Aussies below 450 runs as the conditions aren’t that batting friendly. Perhaps, England made a mistake by going with 4 pacers in the high-octane clash, we witnessed how Joe Root took 2 scalps in his 8 overs.
Australia have made a tactical change as Mitchell Starc could be lethal against England. Starc can also smash lusty blows at the back end of the innings as a knock of 40-odd runs could be decisive in the clash.

Striking at over 100 on that wicket is exceptional- David Warner
David Warner was seen interacting with the media at the end of the Day 1 play and heaped praise on Travis Head and pointed out that striking over 100 is quite unbelievable. David Warner stated that Travis Head applies pressure back onto the bowlers with his attacking instincts
“Travis Head is Travis Head. It’s the way he plays. It’s exciting. He’s going to come out there and to be honest, we’re lucky he’s in our team because he can take it away from you in that half an hour patch. Striking at over 100 on that wicket is exceptional – and that’s what you get from Trav.” said David Warner.

“He applies the pressure back onto the bowling unit. I felt they bowled pretty good to him first up. The ball was moving a little bit and then he countered. He just manages to hit them through backward point or get on top of the ball that’s rising off the wicket. He just finds a way.” he added.
