The Twitterati were out in full force, reacting to all the events that happened on Day 2 of the 1st Ashes match. Australia bowled England out for 302 but their top order crumbled quickly. However, thanks to Steve Smith and Shaun Marsh, who dug deep, Australia ended the day at a respectable 165/4.

After ending Day 1 with a score of 196/4, David Malan (56) and Moeen Ali (38) added 50 runs, before the former perished to bring an end to the 83-run stand. In the second innings, the Australian top order collapsed for 76/4 before Steve Smith (64*) and Shaun Marsh (44*) guided the hosts to 165/4.

Here are the funny tweets from the game:
