Australia survived a tough test from England's bowlers amid disruption from 'Just Stop Oil' protesters to reach lunch at 73-1 in the second Ashes test at Lord's on Wednesday. Opening batters David Warner and Usman Khawaja were dropped early on.
A morning of utter frustration for England, which chose to bowl first in ideal conditions, wasn't soothed until the stroke of lunch when Khawaja was bowled by rookie quick Josh Tongue. Warner was 53 not out from 70 balls and looking comfortable.
