Labuschagne's Superman Catch & 65 Puts Australia in Control of Ashes

  • Marnus Labuschagne took a "superman-like" diving catch to dismiss Jofra Archer, ending England's first innings on Day 2 of the 2nd Ashes Test.
  • Australia finished Day 2 with a 44-run lead (378/6) over England (334 all out) in the 2nd Ashes Test.
  • Mitchell Starc claimed 6 wickets for Australia, while Jake Weatherald (72), Labuschagne (65), and Steven Smith (61) scored half-centuries.
