Hard for Australia to win the Ashes trophy! Injury to key player at Lord’s

The Lord’s Test between England and Australia is currently in colour. On the second day of the Test match, Steve Smith scored a century to take Australia’s score past 400. While England were batting in reply, their key spinner Nathan Lyon was seen injured and walked off the field. Lion’s injury could be a source of worry for the Australian team.

The second match of the Ashes 2023 season begins on Wednesday (June 28) at the historic Lord’s Stadium. On the first day, Australia batted first and scored 339 for 5. Steve Smith and Alex Carey started the second day. Smith scored a crucial knock of 110 off 184 balls to take the team to 416 runs. In reply, England also started with a bang. In the second session, England’s score was 145 for one. But in the last season, Australia’s important bowler Nathan Lyon () got injured. This incident happened in the 37th over of England’s innings.

Opener Ben Duckett played a pool shot off a Cameron Green ball. Lion was standing in the deep backward square at the time and was injured trying to block the shot. Lion’s injury is a concern for the Australian team. Because his spin bowling in England has been seen to be beneficial for the team. Lion took four wickets each in both the innings of the first match. Lion could not walk properly after the injury. If his injury turns out to be serious, he may have to withdraw from the entire Ashes 2023 season. This will be a big blow for the Australian team.

In the Lord’s Test too, Lion started to show his magic of spin. In the first innings, Zach Crowley and Ben Ducketh came on to open the England innings. The duo shared a partnership of 91 runs for the first wicket. But the partnership did not last long due to Lion’s spin. Lion took the wicket of Crowley and gave England the first blow. (Ashes 2023.
