The toss of the Hobart test got delayed by 30 minutes due to rain. Overcast conditions are forecasted throughout the initial two days of the test game. This is a pink ball test and a lush green pitch is getting used. Looking at the conditions, Joe Root opted to bowl first on the green track. The English bowlers finally got their conditions, and they took full advantage of it.
Australia lost both of their openers at the score of just seven runs. Ollie Robinson took the wicket of David Warner, whereas Stuart Broad trapped Usman Khawaja. Just after five more runs, Steve Smith also falls prey to Ollie Robinson. Michael Vaughan was thrilled by England’s start, and he went on Twitter to express himself.

The series is already decided, but the game has a lot of importance. England have not won a single test in Australia for more than 4000 days now. Even, the 12 points of the World Test Championship are on the cards.
