In this episode of the show, it's a full house as we look back at the second Ashes Test between Australia and England, which saw the hosts take a 2-0 lead after a comprehensive win at the Gabba. As per tradition, we start with the victors: first to praise Australia and then to attempt to understand why they've been so dominant so far - and where England have let themselves down. There's talk of key moments, of selection, of game management and much more as we bounce around a number of different talking points. As the episode continues, the conversation turns to individuals: Mitchell Starc's starring role in the series and his overall status in the Test game; Is Jake Weatherald looking like the long-term solution for Australia at the top of the order?; Joe Root's first hundred on Aussie soil; Alex Carey's performance with the gloves; criticism of Jofra Archer and whether England are actually learning from their mistakes. To round out the show, we look ahead to the options facing both sides for the third Test in Adelaide as injury ins and outs seem set to play a major role: Mark Wood and Josh Hazelwood out for the series, but Pat Cummins is on track to return.

Australia finished Day 2 of the Second Ashes Test in a strong position after racing to 6/378 from just 73 overs, taking a 44-run lead over England. Jake Weatherald set the tone with a vibrant maiden Test fifty, supported by contributions from Labuschagne, Smith, and Green — though none went on to a defining score. England's wayward bowling and five dropped catches kept Australia surging ahead, while Alex Carey and Michael Neser's unbeaten stand closed a dominant day. Despite the advantage, Australia missed a chance to fully bury England, leaving the match finely poised heading into Day 3. (1:00) Australia's innings overview — rapid scoring, early dominance. (9:43) England bowled out; Root stranded as Starc takes six wickets. (17:36) Australia's run rate explodes; Wetherald and Head shift momentum.

England recover from early trouble to reach 9/325 on Day 1 of the Gabba day-night Test, driven by a superb unbeaten century from Joe Root (135*) and a relentless spell from Mitchell Starc (6/71). Australia's selection calls (no Lyon, Cummins rested) and a dramatic final-hour stall become key storylines, while standout fielding moments and some self-inflicted English dismissals shape a seesawing day. The consensus: honours even, on a pitch that promises runs for those who bat well over the next two days.

In this episode of the show, Binksy, Baldy, Jamie and Stu look back at the first Test between Australia and England, which was action-packed but was finished within two days. There was plenty of drama in the lead-up to The Ashes, but that was nothing compared with the rollercoaster we saw on the field. Mitchell Starc started with a bang, England's pace battery hit back and it seemed like things were about to settle down by lunch on the second day with England one wicket down and leading by 99. But instead the action resumed, with the visitors crumbling and Travis Head's hundred powering Australia to victory within two sessions. We react to the emotion of the two days, then discuss the lineups and the pitch before highlighting key performers like Starc, Head, Ollie Pope, Jofra Archer and Marnus Labuschagne. We ask where it all went wrong for England, debate whether Travis Head's success could bring an unexpected end to Usman Khawaja's Test career, talk through potential changes for the second Test and plenty more as we try to process a game which moved through the gears at a rapid pace.

A wild second day in Perth ends with Australia stealing a famous victory after a staggering post-lunch collapse from England. Travis Head blasts a legendary 123 from 83 balls to chase down 205 at better than a run-a-ball, while Scott Boland and Mitchell Starc rip through England to flip the match on its head. Manners breaks down the turning points: Boland's game-changing spell, Starc's brilliance, England's tactical meltdown, and what this all means for the rest of the Ashes. Plus, the Khawaja fitness saga, selection implications, and why this might be one of the most dramatic two-day Tests ever played.

In elite sport, every number tells a story — and in this episode, we dive deep into the digits behind the Australian cricket team’s Ashes campaign.
