Pat Cummins won the toss and opted to bat first on a sunny day in Perth. The Australian team announced their playing 11 a day earlier only, and the duo of David Warner and Usman Khawaja came in to open the innings. However, Warner failed to impress and got out by scoring just 5 runs in 16 balls.
Khawaja then stitched a partnership with Marnus Labuschagne, and both of them added 142 runs for the 2nd wicket. The southpaw got out by scoring 65 runs and continued his good form. Marnus also scored his half-century, and he would now look to stitch a big partnership with his mate Steve Smith.

Fox Cricket is one of the broadcasters of the Australian test summer, and to call out the match for the audience, they have a star-studded commentary panel for the same. To bring the West Indian flavour, legendary Brian Lara is a part of the team, and he also gave the debut cap to Tagenarine Chanderpaul.
Apart from Brian Lara, the southpaw duo of Michael Hussey and Adam Gilchrist is also present in the box. Hussey, who is also known as Mr. Cricket as was part of England’s coaching panel, that won the T20 World Cup recently. Adam Gilchrist is one of the prominent members of the Fox Cricket commentary team.
Lara, Hussey and Gilchrist are legends of the game, and it is certainly nice to hear from such great cricketing brains. Kerry O’Keefee and Mark Howard are also present to call out the game and both of them are doing this media job for a long time now.
