Australia bowled out the visitors for just 189 thanks to Green’s five-wicket haul in the first innings. Green was outstanding with the ball. The all-rounder wasn’t the only player to sustain an injury during the contest; Mitchell Starc and David Warner also suffered blows and had to leave the field.
