As has been the trend in this Australia vs New Zealand, the controversies banter and magic has continued to rule the Test match in Perth. Right from the flying hat to Marnus Labuschagne’s appeal, everything in this Test match has been magical.
Though there has been so much drama on the field, the home team Australia has dominated the New Zealand side in the middle.
In the first innings, Marnus Labuschagne’s hundred drove the Aussies to the score of 416 runs. Tim Southee and Neil Wagner shared 8 wickets between themselves but the Kiwis missed the services of their star pacer Trent Boult.
Having a trail of 416 runs, New Zealand did not bat with responsibility as they lost their openers in single-digit scores only. Ross Taylor tried to save the day for New Zealand with his 80 runs innings however, the Kiwis lost all their wickets for just 166 runs eventually.
