England and Australia have enthralled us with some insane Test matches and the ongoing Ashes has lived up to all the hype and expectations. Both the matches have carried into the final day – with both teams’ standing a chance to win and any probability of a drawn game has been thrown out of the window.

Australia has won the crucial moments in the first two matches and thus they are in front with a 2-0 lead. On the other hand, England hasn’t been able to deliver as a unit so far. Ben Stokes played a knock for the ages as he scored a magnum opus 155 but it was not enough to pull the hosts from the jaws of defeat.

The third Test match will be a do-or-die contest for the home team and they will look to deliver as a unit.
