Mitchell Starc Lights Up Perth Stadium, England's Bazball Fizzles Out in 1st Ashes Test

Australian pacer Mitchell Starc became the first left-arm seamer to claim 100 wickets in Ashes Tests, taking 3 wickets in the first hour of the first Ashes Test at Perth Stadium. His strike rate of 44.8 is the best among all 21 bowlers to reach the landmark. England's top order struggled to stitch together meaningful opening stands, with Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, and Joe Root falling to Starc's triple strike.
