The Ashes, 4th Test, Day 2 Live Updates: After a rainy opening day, Australia will look to set up a big partnership in the first innings after the home side finished day 1 at 126/3 in the fourth Ashes Test at Sydney Cricket Ground on Wednesday. David Warner, Marcus Harris and Marnus Labuschagne were all fired on Day 1. At the time of the punches, Steven Smith teamed up with Usman Khawaja, who is playing his first game of the ongoing series. Khawaja was added to the Australian squad after batter Travis Head returned positive for COVID-19 last week. This is also Khawaja’s first international match since the Ashes in England in 2019. For the visitors, Stuart Broad, James Anderson and Mark Wood each picked one wicket on Day 1. Australia already took a 3-0 lead in the run of five games. (LIVE SCORING CARD)
