! The way Starc's been taking wickets is insane 
, he's like a machine out there. And that dismissal of Duckett was a game-changer – England needs to step up their game if they wanna have any chance of winning 
. I mean, it's not like Australia's gonna hold back or anything, they're all about putting pressure on the opposition. But at the same time, you gotta feel for England – they've been in tough spots before and always manage to come out on top.
. His experience is showing, and it's scary for opposing batsmen like Duckett who can't even handle his pace 
. So yeah, this match is shaping up to be a real thriller – bring on the intensity! 
, can't believe England's batting line-up is getting smoked again 
! Starc was on fire today 
and I'm loving the Aussie confidence - they're really putting pressure on the Poms now 
. It's gonna be a wild ride at the SCG, though - expect some epic battles between these two teams 
Australia's Starc is literally on fire with those dismissals. 27 runs for Duckett, and it was all over. The Aussie team seems super determined to put pressure on the Poms' batting line-up. I think England needs to step up their game if they wanna turn this match around. That Starc's pace and skill are insane! Can't wait to see how the rest of the match unfolds
