Australia dominates Ashes, England in trouble
9 Dec
Summary
- Australia leads the Ashes series 2-0 after only six days.
- England struggled in both Perth and Brisbane Tests.
- England faces embarrassment if they don't win next Test.

Australia has secured a dominant 2-0 lead in the Ashes series, a position few predicted after only six days of play. The team demonstrated resilience by overcoming early pressure in Perth to secure a remarkable turnaround victory. This momentum carried into the second Test in Brisbane, where Australia delivered a masterclass in Test cricket, particularly in day-night conditions.
England's campaign is in significant jeopardy, with the series far from over but heading towards an embarrassing outcome if they cannot salvage a win. The team's batting approach and ability to perform under pressure, questions raised prior to the tour, are now being answered in the negative by Australian critics.
Skepticism regarding England's suitability to Australian conditions and their propensity to crumble in crucial moments appears justified. The current situation strongly suggests England must win the third Test in Adelaide to avoid further humiliation and keep the series alive.
