ASHES: CENTURY IN FIRST TEST FOR THE AUSTRALIANS
-
Travis Head may have batted himself into a permanent role as Australian opener after his swashbuckling 123 against England, casting doubt on the future of an ageing Usman Khawaja.
The 38-year-old Khawaja failed to open in either innings in Perth because of back spasms, paving the way for Head to seize the opportunity with all guns blazing.
His 123 from just 83 balls drove Australia to a crushing eight-wicket victory, with the knock hailed as one of the best in Ashes history by skipper Steve Smith.
Australia have been searching for a new opener since David Warner retired early last year with Khawaja going through six different partners.
