In a thrilling start to the highly anticipated first Test of the Ashes 2025 series, Australian left-arm seamer Mitchell Starc took the wicket of England batsman Zak Crawley off the very first ball of the innings. The dismissal came courtesy of an expert catch by Usman Khawaja at first slip, leaving the Englishmen reeling with a paltry score to show for their efforts - zero.
Crawley's untimely exit was a stark reminder that the Aussies are not going to be intimidated by their opponents in this fiercely contested series. Starc's exceptional skill and precision proved too much for the Englishman, as he was unable to even put up a fight against the swift delivery.
This early dominance from Australia sets the tone for what promises to be an intense and closely watched match at Perth. With the momentum firmly in their favor, Australia looks poised to take control of the series and make a bold statement on the international cricket stage.
As the Englishmen struggle to regain their footing, they will need to regroup and reassess their strategy if they hope to level the scoreline before it's too late. Meanwhile, Australia's Starc has sent a clear warning that his side is not here to be underestimated - and that the stage is now theirs to own.
With the first Test all but won by Australia, fans around the world are eagerly anticipating what the rest of the series has in store for them. Will England be able to mount an impressive comeback, or will Australia continue their dominance?
