Ashes 1st Test: Day 2 Wrap – Head & Boland Demolish a Hapless England

A wild second day in Perth ends with Australia stealing a famous victory after a staggering post-lunch collapse from England. Travis Head blasts a legendary 123 from 83 balls to chase down 205 at better than a run-a-ball, while Scott Boland and Mitchell Starc rip through England to flip the match on its head. Manners breaks down the turning points: Boland’s game-changing spell, Starc’s brilliance, England’s tactical meltdown, and what this all means for the rest of the Ashes. Plus, the Khawaja fitness saga, selection implications, and why this might be one of the most dramatic two-day Tests ever played. (05:10) Boland’s three wickets in 11 balls flip the Test (10:00) Starc removes Root and Australia takes control (17:38) Travis Head’s brutal 69-ball century (21:46) Australia seals the chase: Marnus and Smith finish it Cricket Unfiltered Merchandise is Here!
