After nine goals pounding in Brisbane and then hit 275 walking in Adelaide, Joe Root’s team had to win at Melbourne Cricket Ground to keep their slender ash hopes of them staying alive.
A boisterous crowd is around 70,000 expected on the opening day of the test.
As holders, Australia only needs to avoid defeat to maintain the UNAK.
The sign is not good for the UK – the only example of the team coming from 2-0 to win ash is Australia Donald Bradman in 1936-37.
