The England trail is Affirmative.
The scorecard is a summary of what happened.
Australia dominated again on the second day of the second Test in Adelaide and England face a huge battle to get back into the series.
After the hosts racked up , England's openers failed once more as Joe Root's side closed on 17-2 in the day-night Test.
In the third over, Burns nicked Mitchell Starc to second slip and Haseeb Hameed hit Neser's second ball for six.
The players were taken off 45 minutes from the end by a lightning storm.
After scoring 95 not out overnight, Marnus Labuschagne was caught behind off an Ollie Robinson no-ball on 102, only to fall to the same bowler for 103.
Steve Smith once again stopped any chance of a fightback after that was one of three England wickets in the first session.
Alex Carey made 51 and Australia's stand-in captain put on 91 with him.
Smith was trapped LBW by a James Anderson delivery that kept low for 93, denying him a 12th ton against England, but some lower-order slogging - Starc added 39 not out and Neser 35 - allowed the hosts to declare with 90 minutes to play.
Only once has a team come from 2-0 down to win the Ashes, and that was in the first Test in Australia.
Reaction to the second day in Adelaide.
It was another sad day for England.
The series is six days old and little has changed for England. This was another day when Australian runs flowed and England batters were doomed when it was their turn to bat.
It began with a fightback of sorts, three of which were taken in the first session on a flat pitch, but England failed to seize the crucial moment.
Smith and Carey took the game away from England after the first interval, as they took the game away from Australia after the second interval.
Robinson's dismissal of Labuschagne off a no-ball at the start did not matter, but after Warner was the batter, it only added to the ragged impression England are giving on this tour.
After Buttler's costly drops of Labuschagne on day one, there were also overthrows and missed half chances on day two, to the delight of the partisan home crowd.
By the end of Australia's innings, England's weary bowlers were being flogged into the stands by number 10 Jhye Richardson as Australia's eighth and ninth-wicket partnerships added 83 runs combined in 60 balls.
