Opinion: The XI Australia should go with for the Perth #Ashes Test (if Cummins is unavailable). π Balance and having players in their specialist positions is key for Australia. https://t.co/02YEFhWmJz

The XI Australia should go with for the 1st Test of the Ashes vs England in Perth, focused on specialist players in their positions.

STEVE SMITH! One of the greatest slip fielders of all time. Add this to the highlight reels! Unbelievable catch made even more incredible by the fact Alex Carey was up to the stumps and Smith wouldβve seen the ball later. Stunning stuff. #Ashes

Ben Stokes before the Ashes series talking about England being ready. England have looked underdone. Gassed after a day in the field. Questions will continue to be asked about the preparation and fitness of the team. #Ashes

Sixth Indian men's player and seventh overall to score a century in all three formats. Well played Yashasvi Jaiswal - overcame his early struggles today and has found his rhythm. A great talent. #INDvSA

Vintage Rohit Sharma pull shots on display today. A thing of beauty. #INDvSA

Some words on a herculean effort by Mitchell Starc. Batted 141 deliveries in an innings that was in total contrast to some of the madness on day two. Then kept his speeds up and took the vital wicket of Joe Root. What a player. Plus fan reactions. π https://t.co/IMnSFnOoBS

Mitchell Starc produces magnificent all-round performance that put Australia on the doorstep of a 2-0 Ashes series lead.

20,000 international runs for Rohit Sharma. A magnificent achievement. ππ #INDvSA

Seven ODI centuries against a single nation: India. 23 ODI hundreds overall. Might not be enough for a win as his teammates couldn't get going, but what a return to form for Quinton de Kock. #INDvSA

Scott Boland faced 72 balls today. No England batter has managed 60.

Mitchell Starc looks absolutely spent at the end of a massive day, yet he still delivered thunderbolt after thunderbolt. What a performance. Give him man of the series now. #Ashes

All of Australia said this loud and clear to England during the 2023 Ashes. #Ashes

England just put your egos away for once. Stop driving everything on the up. You want to be entertaining? You want to βsave test cricketβ in this country? Do it by winning. Not by being idiots

I wonder if there would be still be 9 England players in an Australia-England combined Ashes XI. #Ashes

Huuuuuge edge from Joe Root. Massive, massive wicket! Lost for words regarding Mitchell Starc. Leading the attack, played a magnificent innings in hot conditions and still bowling well above 140km/h. Turning 36 years of age soon. Freak. #Ashes

Brendan Doggett's previous over before a Scott Boland delivery stayed low to Ben Duckett. Keep bowling enough deliveries in the right areas and there's some help. Something England didn't do at all. #Ashes

Will double down on this as one crawls under Duckett's bat. Don't move away from the good length! #Ashes

Said it yesterday, will say it again. Not a road! England have bowled poorly. Enough seam movement and uneven bounce available. Persist on a good length in and around offstump is key for Australia when we bowl. #Ashes
