Australia openers David Warner and Joe Burns were seen enjoying the game rock, paper and scissors with all the cricketing gears on and that too before going to the field in the first day of the second Test against Pakistan in Adelaide.

Australia won the toss and opted to bat first. Rain played a spoilsport for the day-night Test match. However, Cricket.com.au shared the video of David Warner and Burns playing the game while waiting for the game to start after rain. “Good old rock, nothing beats that!”, they added.

Australia won the first Test by an innings and 5 runs where Warner scored 154 off 296 before getting dismissed to Naseem Shah. However, the limelight was taken by Marnus Labuschagne who smashed a 279-ball 185 which included 20 boundaries. Even Joe Burns scored 97 off 166 and Matthew Wade also scored a half-century. They put up a huge total of 580 where Yasir Shah bagged a 4-wicket haul.

For Pakistan, Babar Azam scored a century and Mohammad Rizwan scored 95 off 145 but that was not enough to win the game. Australia bowlers did a great job. As far as the second Test is concerned, Joe Burns, Australia opener fell very cheaply off Shaheen Afridi for mere 4. However, since then, David Warner and Marnus Labuschagne didn’t let a single chance to the bowlers to get them out. Both of them punished every bowler out there.

While Warner smashed 166* off 228, including 19 fours, Labuschagne scored 126* off 205 which included 17 boundaries. Both of them remained unbeaten in the middle at the stumps of the Day 1 where Australia posted 302 on the board for 1 in 73 overs. Both the batsmen shows that there is a possibility of double-century tomorrow, on Day 2.
