Well, what a day that was - again! Yas Rana and Katya Witney analyse another exhilarating day of action, which saw England fall just short in their chase of 371 on a controversial and emotionally charged final day at Lord's. Ben Duckett's impressive Test continued, scoring 83 to add to his first innings 98, but after he was excellently caught behind by Alex Carey and Jonny Bairstow was contentiously stumped - an incident that we'll be hearing about for a long, long time - it was the Ben Stokes show. The England captain smashed a stunning 155 including nine sixes, reminiscent in parts of his Headingley 2019 heroics, to give England a glimmer of hope, but couldn't quite drag his side over the line. Australia take a 2-0 series lead to the third Test at Headingley, starting on Thursday. For more in-depth analysis and reaction, tune into tomorrow's episode of the Wisden Cricket Weekly Podcast.

Yas Rana is joined by Phil Walker to discuss day four at Lord's, which saw England's top order blown away in a stunning new ball spell after a strong fightback earlier in the day. Broad took 4-65 as Australia were bowled out for 279, with Khawaja top scoring and Lyon hobbling out to bat despite injury. After setting England 371 for victory, Starc and Cummins put on a clinic with the new ball, blowing away Crawley, Pope, Root and Brook. There was a controversial moment late in the day, with Starc adjudged to have grounded a catch off Duckett.
