Two-Day Test Madness: Australia Pulverise Bazball
Episode Notes
Australia’s furious two-day demolition of England in Perth leaves the Ashes opener as one of the most remarkable Tests in modern history. Menners breaks down the carnage: Travis Head’s breathtaking fourth-innings century, Mitchell Starc’s 10-wicket masterpiece, Scott Boland’s match-turning spell, and the tactical blunders that left Bazball shattered. He also digs into selection debates, Khawaja’s future, the rise of Head as a long-term opener, England’s refusal to play a pink-ball warm-up, and whether ultra-short Tests are good for the game. A fiery, emotional, and statistic-packed episode that captures the chaos and beauty of a historic Ashes clash.
