Australia claimed a significant victory over England, winning by eight wickets in the second Ashes test in Brisbane. The triumph puts Australia 2-0 ahead in the series, with Michael Neser emerging as the unexpected hero, taking five wickets on his home ground in a noteworthy return to test cricket.

The match saw Steve Smith exhibit exceptional captaincy skills. Smith's unbeaten 23 and assisting the Australian team in reaching their target effectively shattered England's resolve, which now marks their 15th defeat in 17 tests on Australian soil. Despite Gus Atkinson's efforts, the English side couldn't prevent Australia's swift chase.

Amidst a heated exchange between Jofra Archer and Smith, Australia finished on 69 for two, with a stylish six from Smith securing the win. England's challenge to turn the series around seems herculean, given only one team has ever won from a 2-0 deficit in test history.
