Travis Head has plundered a stunning 69-ball century in a session to steer Australia to a famous eight-wicket win in Perth after England\u2019s batters faltered for a second time in match that will live long in the memory.<\/p>\n

Australia will take a 1-0 series lead into the second Test in Brisbane after reaching 2-205 in just 28.2 overs to record an emphatic victory inside two days that lands a hammer blow on England\u2019s hopes of regaining the Ashes.<\/p>\n

For a player with just 167 runs across all formats of cricket during the past three months, this was a return to form of epic proportions and an innings that will go down as one of the greatest Ashes performances in history.<\/p>\n

Off the back of a 10-wicket haul from player of the match Mitchell Starc, \u201cTravball\u201d decimated \u201cBazball\u201d on an exhilarating afternoon of cricket as the dominant left-hander powered Australia towards their target of 205, belting 123 from 83 balls in front of 49,983 awe-struck spectators.<\/p>\n

It was the equal sixth-quickest century in Test history and equal third fastest by an Australian, in terms of balls faced, since Adam Gilchrist\u2019s magnificent 57-ball ton in 2006 and David Warner\u2019s 69-ball effort in Perth in 2011.<\/p>\n
