Top knock from Head.

Who the hell had an Australia/England test match potentially finishing inside 2 days on their bingo card?

 

[glenferry23]

Head is a wrecking ball in this kind of touch, England look demoralised. Th is is the kind of kind of innings and loss that can have repercussions far beyond this match. Not sure they can come back into the series after this.

Piss poor from Perth to have so many empty seats.

Top knock from Head.

This is the best headjob the poms will ever get.

Just your typical gooner... Stock standard brain dead moron.

Flipping the tables on the poms in 4hrs like this is as good as it gets.

as was just said on MMM commentary.
They were effectively 1-98 ahead at lunch. Will lose by stumps.

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

One of the best turnaround wins, amazing.

Starc a very strong candidate for MOTM however it has to go to Head after that.

Nah it has to be Starc

Terrific last two sessions. Hopefully they keep Head at top of the order. Well done to the bowlers with Cummins and Hazlewood out. Starc brilliant, Boland turned it today and though Doggett did well for his first test.

 

[glenferry23]

Starc it is, fair enough too.

Italy in 1990 and 2000. France in 2016 England in 96 and 2020 although outplayed one nil up and leading in the shootout really botched it.

Nah, he'd just name a random mix of 90s players, and then post "what?"

I dont think its good for Tests to last 2 days but **** me being there yesterday was exciting. The Barmy Army throwing their beer trays (and everyone joining in) when Head was grinding them into dust was worth the ticket alone

It seems that if you had bought tickets for day 3, 4 or 5 of the Perth test then your money's gone.

17. A Ticket can’t be refunded:

a. if a Match is completed early in the normal course of play (i.e. completed in accordance with the rules for the Match, as determined by Cricket Australia);​

I would have given it to Head. Both sets of bowlers were on top for the first three innings. With Australia chasing the highest total of the match it was Head who changed the game.

That only applies if the match ends on the day you attend eg. you don't get a refund if the match is won an hour into the day. All tickets for the last 3 days were refunded.
