Welcome to our day two coverage of the Boxing Day Ashes Test
Chaos reigned on day one of the Boxing Day Test, with 20 wickets tumbling before Scott Boland survived one torrid final over to see out the day as nightwatchman.
Australia will open today batting with a lead of 46, a handsome advantage considering the difficulties both sides had batting yesterday.
