In a thrilling two-day encounter at Perth Stadium, Australia secured a decisive victory over England in the first Test. The match saw both teams struggle on a challenging pitch, but Travis Head's spectacular second innings stood out. With England's poor record in Australia, having not won a Test in their last 16 attempts, their hopes for a comeback rely on more batting-friendly tracks in the remaining four Tests. Current betting odds favor Australia (1.25) to win the series, while England trails at 6.00.

Australia claimed a dramatic two-day victory in the first Test against England at Perth Stadium. Both sides batting looked very fragile on a bowler friendly surface until Travis Head played a superb knock in the second innings.

England's record in Australia is very poor with no wins in their last 16 Tests 'down under'. They have managed a singular draw in 15 defeats.

If the first Test is anything to go by, England's 'Bazball' is not going to be a hit in Australia. But, the visitors will hope to get some batsmen friendly surfaces in the remaining four games. For now, the odds are firmly with the hosts on retaining the urn.

Australia are priced at 1.25 to win the series outright while England are paying 6.00. Another drawn series is valued at 10.00 with bet365.
