Australia eye world domination after Ashes glory | wutube
over a shell-shocked England in the Boxing Day Test.
Australia retained the Ashes with a thumping win in the Boxing Day Test to take an unassailable 3-0 series lead.After a wretched start to 2021, beginning with a shock series loss to a second-string India side at home, the national men’s team have finished the year on a high, achieving their main goals of the summer - a historic T20 world title and victory in the Ashes after just over 11 days of one-sided play. Greater goals now await in the Test arena, away from the creature comforts of home.
This is an Australian team that is in its prime, which makes last season’s defeat all the more bewildering. Seven players are ranked in the top 10 in their respective disciplines, led by the top-ranked duo of Marnus Labuschagne and Cummins. They also boast a world-class spinner in Nathan Lyon, who has rediscovered his mojo after a poor season 12 months ago, and a future star in all-rounder Cameron Green.
For so long reliant on the big three of Cummins, Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood, the side now have a pace cartel the envy of the world.
