The Ashes 2025 second Test - day two: England's Jofra Archer traps Australia's Jake Weatherald lbw for 72

Jofra Archer brought the house down on day two of the second Ashes Test in Brisbane, dismissing Australia's Jake Weatherald for 72, leaving his team on a precarious 146-2. The English pacer bowled a brilliant yorker that trapped Weatherald lbw, sending him packing.

Archer, known for his intimidating pace and skill with the ball, has been on fire throughout this Ashes series. His ability to trap batsmen in the crease has caused problems for Australia's top-order, and Weatherald was the latest casualty.

Weatherald, who had a decent start to his innings, looked in control until Archer steamed in with his signature pace. The Yorker was a masterclass delivery that left Weatherald with no chance of survival. The umpire had no hesitation in giving him out lbw, and Weatherald's frustration was palpable as he walked off the field.

The dismissal marked a turning point in the match, putting pressure on Australia to recover from this setback. With England's bowlers continuing to pile on the pressure, it will be interesting to see how Australia responds to lose two wickets for just 218 runs.

Meanwhile, Archer continued his impressive form with the ball, and his confidence is growing by the game. He has been one of the most consistent performers for England in this Ashes series, and his performance against Australia has cemented his status as a top-class bowler.

The stage is now set for a thrilling day three of the match, where Australia will look to rebuild their innings and get back on top. With Archer continuing to pose a threat with the ball, it will be a challenge for them to recover from this setback.
 
man... jofra archer is on FIRE rn πŸš€ he's like a magician out there, always making batsmen look silly with that yorker of his πŸ˜‚ 72 runs for weatherald and england's still in control? australia's gotta step up their game or they're gonna get smashed πŸ’₯ archer's got the skills and confidence to take down any team, and right now he's the one to beat πŸ™Œ
 
🀩 I'm loving Jofra Archer's performance in the Ashes series so far! The way he can just steam in and deliver that yorker is just mind-blowing πŸ™Œ! He's like a force of nature out there, leaving batsmen struggling to cope with his pace. And 72 for Weatherald? That's a big wicket for England! πŸŽ‰ It'll be interesting to see how Australia responds now but I'm confident Archer will keep putting the pressure on them. Bring it on day three! πŸ“Ί
 
I'm loving the way Jofra Archer is taking over out there! He's like a force of nature on the pitch πŸŒͺ️. The way he bowled that yorker was absolute perfection - I mean, Weatherald had no chance πŸ˜‚. But seriously, it's clear why England's got such confidence in him - he just keeps delivering.

I've gotta say, though, Australia's situation is getting pretty desperate... 146-2 and losing two wickets for 218 runs? Ouch πŸ€•. They need to get their act together if they want to turn this around. The question is, can they recover from this setback?

It's going to be a thrilling day three, that's for sure! I'm on the edge of my seat just thinking about it πŸ˜ƒ. Will Archer keep his mojo working, or will Australia find a way to mount a comeback? Only time will tell ⏰.
 
man... this Jofra Archer guy is like a force of nature out there πŸŒͺ️! his yorker was so precise, i mean you gotta see it to believe it 😲. what i love about cricketers who bowl like that is they're not just relying on speed, but also got the brains and technique to back it up πŸ€“.

anyway, this match is turning out to be a real nail-biter πŸ’₯. australia's in a tough spot now and they gotta dig deep to get back in the game πŸ’ͺ. but what i find really inspiring about cricketers like Archer is their mental toughness πŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ. he's not getting rattled by the pressure, he's just keeping on bowling and dominating the game πŸ’₯.

it's a great lesson for us all, you know? when life throws us curveballs (no pun intended πŸ˜‚), we gotta stay focused, calm, and keep doing what we do best 🎯. don't let the pressure get to you, just rise above it and go out there and crush it πŸ’₯!
 
OMG u guyz, Jofra Archer is LITERALLY UNSTOPPABLE right now!!! πŸ˜‚πŸ”₯ His yorker delivery was INSANE and I'm still shaking my head thinking how Australia got caught off guard like that! Weatherald looked solid at first but once Archer came in with his pace, he just couldn't handle it. Now England's on top and I think they're gonna put a lot of pressure on Aus to recover from this loss. Archer's on fire and I'm SO here for it!!! πŸπŸ‘Š
 
lol what's going on here? i just saw this thread from like 3 days ago and thought id jump in πŸ€” still can't believe jofra archer is absolutely UNPLAYABLE atm his yorker is so scary, left weatherald looking all confused on the field πŸ˜‚ i think england's got a good chance of winning this one if they keep up their pressure
 
Ugh, that yorker by Jofra Archer was crazy! 🀯 He's just so consistent and unpredictable, you never know what's gonna happen when he's on the pitch. The way Australia's top-order is struggling against him is pretty concerning. Weatherald looked solid at first, but as soon as Archer brought his A-game, he was done for. It's like he has a sixth sense for when to unleash that yorker and it's just devastating for batsmen.

I'm loving the drama of this Ashes series so far! 🀩 The atmosphere in Brisbane is electric and it feels like England are finally on top. Archer's form is incredible, he's got everyone talking about him and I think he's a serious contender for player of the series. But Australia won't go down without a fight - can they recover from this setback?
 
Omg I was thinking that Jofra Archer is like the savior of England's cricket team πŸ™Œ! He's been on fire throughout this Ashes series and his yorker delivery is just insane πŸ”₯. Australia's top-order has been struggling against him and Weatherald was one of the latest victims. Poor bloke looked so confident until that Yorker came in and left him for dead πŸ˜….

I'm loving how England's bowlers are putting the pressure on Australia now 🎯! It'll be interesting to see if they can rebuild their innings and get back on top, but with Archer at the helm, I think it's going to be tough for them πŸ”₯. He's like a force to be reckoned with on the field 😲.

Anyway, Day 3 is looking like it's going to be an epic match πŸŽ‰! Can't wait to see what happens next πŸ’₯

I'm telling you, Jofra Archer is a genius bowler! 🀩 He's got the skills to take down even the toughest batsmen like Weatherald. But at the same time, I think Australia's still got a good chance of coming back in this match. The Aussie team has been here before and they've always managed to bounce back from tough spots. And what if Archer just had a bad day? He's not invincible! πŸ˜‚
 
I'm tellin' ya, somethin's not right about Jofra Archer's form... I mean, have you seen his speed? It's like he's got some sort of superpower πŸ”₯! But seriously, what if the Aussie batsmen are gettin' help from outside the pitch or somethin'? Maybe there's a hidden agenda to make them look bad on purpose πŸ€”. And that Yorker he bowled? It was just a little too perfect... like someone rigged it up for him 🎯. I'm not sayin' Archer's not a great bowler, but I think we need to keep an open mind and look at the bigger picture πŸ‘€. Maybe there's more to this match than meets the eye...
 
OMG 🀯 this Ashes series is getting more intense by the minute! Jofra Archer is straight fire πŸ”₯ and I'm loving how he's taking on the Aussies. That yorker delivery was INSANE 😲, I mean who needs a wicket when you can get them out lbw like that? 🀣 But seriously, it's gonna be tough for Australia to recover from this loss. Archer is on point πŸ”΄ and their bowlers are putting pressure on the Aussies. Bring on day three and let's see how they handle the heat! πŸ”₯
 
I'm loving how Jofra Archer has been taking apart Australia's top order 🀯! That yorker delivery was pure class, I mean who needs practice when you can just steam in and leave batsmen high and dry? πŸ˜‚ Seriously though, it's clear that England's bowlers are on fire right now, and if they can keep up the pressure, this series is going to be a nail-biter.

I think what impresses me most about Archer is how he's able to read the game so well. He knows exactly when to take risks and when to play it safe, which makes him nearly unbeatable on his day. His confidence is growing by the game, and I'm excited to see how Australia responds to losing two wickets for 218 runs.

It's going to be a thrilling day three, that's for sure! Will Australia be able to recover from this setback, or will England continue their dominant form? Only time will tell πŸ€”.

That yorker delivery was insane 😲, I mean, how else can you explain a player getting out for 72?! Weatherald had no chance, fam πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. Now we're gonna see if Aus can recover from this and make it a real contest πŸ€”. Bring on day three, I'm SO stoked πŸ˜ƒ to see what happens next!

Can't wait for day three, it's gonna be EPIC! πŸ’₯πŸ‘
