Australia vs England 3rd Test Day 2 LIVE Score: On a balanced but not uncontroversial first day of the third Test match, hosts Australia once again got the runs on the board without needing to rely on anything particularly special. Thanks to hometown boy Alex Carey's century at the Adelaide Oval, they reached 326/8 overnight, and have a chance of pushing that past 350: it's what to be expected on a good batting surface, and certainly good enough to ask England the question of whether they have enough in the tank to haul that down. England will know taking the last two wickets will be non-negotiable, particularly with the second new ball in hand, and that the key phase of play will be getting off to a good start with the bat. Partnerships will be the priority, just handing off the baton to one another and slowly building on this innings; their natural game will be enough to keep the scoring going at a strong level, without needing to turn to silliness or unorthodoxy that has come to be associated with ‘Bazball’.
