The REAL Reason Australia Won the First Test… And Why England Lost Their Minds

Описание: This might be the wildest Ashes Test we’ll ever see.
Two days. 200+ overs short. Both teams trying to lose the game before Travis Head entered the Matrix and blew the whole match open.

In this full breakdown of the First Ashes Test in Perth, I cover:

🏏 Why England’s 9/99 collapse was even worse than it looked
🏏 How Mitchell Starc took a deserved 10-for… and somehow wasn’t the main story
🏏 Why Scott Boland suddenly became unplayable
🏏 What on Earth Joe Root was thinking
🏏 How Travis Head played one of the greatest Ashes innings of the 21st century
🏏 Tactical mistakes from both teams
🏏 The biggest questions heading into Test 2 (Khawaja? Webster? England’s mindset?)
🏏 Whether the Jamie Smith DRS moment changed the match
🏏 Why this was basically the TikTok version of a Test match
