Ashes 2021-22: 'Hurting' England not giving up, claims Dawid Malan

Firstpost  

After slumping by nine wickets in Brisbane and then by 275 runs in Adelaide, the visitors will enter the Melbourne Cricket Ground cauldron for the third Test on Sunday needing to win Melbourne, Australia: England are “hurting” but determined to rise to the challenge and claw their way back into the Ashes series against Australia, batsman Dawid Malan said on Thursday. After slumping by nine wickets in Brisbane and then by 275 runs in Adelaide, the visitors will enter the Melbourne Cricket Ground cauldron for the third Test on Sunday needing to win. “I know it’s a long way to come but we have to do well and play our best cricket to get ourselves back in the series.” The odds are against them – the only instance of a team coming from 2-0 down to win the Ashes was Donald Bradman’s Australia way back in 1936-37. “Scoring 80’s good, scoring 180’s brilliant, so that’s the goal,” said the South African-born Malan, who has hit nine Test 50s but only converted one into a century.
