That’s it from me today, thanks for your company. We’ll be back early tomorrow UK time for England’s clash against Ireland and then again on Friday for the big one between England and Australia at the MCG. Until then, goodbye!
Marcus Stoinis is Player of the Match for his batting ballistics:
To be honest I was really nervous today being at home in Perth with lots of family and friends here. Mentally I was nice and fresh having some time off with this side strain, but I felt good. We played here the other day against England and it was a beautiful wicket. It’s a beautiful ground, probably the best ground in Australia if not the world. We’ve wrapped this game up and look forward to playing England at the MCG. They’re obviously a very good team so we’ll do our homework again, rest up, get on our flight tomorrow and then go from there.”
