England are preparing to throw the kitchen sink at Australia in the day-night second Ashes Test at Adelaide Oval in a bid to level the series after seeing their best-laid plans torn to shreds in the Gabba opener. Selectors are expected to press the rested James Anderson and Stuart Broad back into service and hope the veteran duo can do more damage with the pink ball than their team mates managed with the red one during the nine-wicket thrashing in Brisbane.

Another defeat would be disastrous for Joe Root’s men. Only one team have come back from a 2-0 deficit to win the Ashes – the Don Bradman-captained Australia that pulled off the comeback for the ages in 1936/37. While Root has enjoyed a Bradman-esque 2021 with the bat, scoring the most runs in a calendar year by an English batsman, it might be a stretch to compare his team with the Depression-era Australians.

And they face a rejuvenated side that has turned day-night cricket into a competitive advantage, winning all eight of their tests under lights dating back to the format’s 2015 debut. That run included the 120-run victory over Root’s England in Adelaide during the 2017/18 series, which stretched Australia’s lead to 2-0 on the way to a 4-0 hiding.

Where England have Broad and Anderson, Australia have their own swing maestro in Mitchell Starc and a proven pink ball performer in skipper Pat Cummins.
