'Where has this come from?' - Starc bowls Root as England lose third wicket in six balls

Australia need 205 to win the first Ashes Test following another spectacular England collapse on the second day in Perth.

On a breathless day, Australia's bowlers hauled the home side back into contention in a thunderous period after lunch as England slumped from 65-1 to 104-7.

England lost six wickets for 39 runs in 11 overs, including 3-0 in six deliveries, continuing the clatter of wickets across the opening two days of the series at Perth Stadium.

Left-armer Mitchell Starc completed the first 10-wicket haul by an Australia bowler in an Ashes Test since Shane Warne 20 years ago, supported by Scott Boland returning to his best.
