Player of the Match
Mitchell Marsh | Australia
My first Test match at this stadium, first at Perth in six years, so it’s a nice feeling. When I went out, the lead was big and so the pressure was off, but this was a tricky wicket, so I had to gauge the conditions before playing my shots.
Batting is my priority, we’ve got such an amazing bowling attack, so happy to contribute with the ball and it’s a great feeling to take Babar out.
