The iconic Ashes series between England and Australia has begun, and the opening test match in Perth has already delivered a dramatic start. As per tradition, the series kicked off in Perth, Australia, and the first day turned into a complete spectacle.

England, after being asked to bat first, faced instant trouble. Australian pace star Mitchell Starc struck in the very first over, setting the tone for a ruthless bowling performance. The Australian bowlers dominated throughout the innings and bowled England out for a modest total of one hundred and seventy two.

Australia, in reply, looked determined to build a solid lead. However, the English bowlers produced an even better spell. They dismantled the Australian batting lineup by taking nine wickets for just one hundred and twenty three runs.

This meant a staggering nineteen wickets fell on the opening day. Such an event is extremely rare in test cricket, making the first day of this match one of the most dramatic in recent Ashes history.

The Perth Stadium has long been regarded as the venue with the fastest cricket pitch in the world, and the conditions lived up to that reputation. The extra pace and bounce created complete chaos for the batters and gave fast bowlers a dream day.

With so many wickets falling on day one, this match could easily end within the next one or two days. The result promises to be thrilling. As always, England and Australia are showcasing the highest level of test cricket and fans around the world are witnessing something special.
