The first Test match between Australia and Pakistan at Perth Stadium saw a dominant performance from Australia. David Warner's century and a strong start by the Australian openers put Australia in a commanding position. Despite Pakistan's efforts, they struggled to match Australia's performance. On day three, Australia built a huge lead, and Nathan Lyon reached 500 Test wickets. The match concluded with Australia winning by 360 runs, marking Pakistan's third-lowest innings total in Australia in men's Tests.
