The home side retained the urn in Adelaide and are now 3-0 up despite a fight back from England's tail on day five. 

England captain Ben Stokes will be eager to avoid a whitewash, but with his team unable to decide the style of cricket they will play and morale at an all-time low, this could get ugly for England in what is already a disappointing tour.

Ahead of the first ball, DAZN News has everything you need to know ahead of the fourth Ashes Test in Melbourne.

At this point, anything can happen with England. 

They showed in Adelaide that they can deviate away from the all-guns blazing Bazball, and play a more traditional style of Test cricket. 

With the urn gone, the majority of those in attendance at the MCG will be wanting more England humiliation at the hands of Australia. 

Ben Stokes and co. will need to hold their nerve in the Boxing Day Test, but from what I've seen from the past few matches, I'm not too confident. 

I expect England to put up a fight in Melbourne, but sadly I can see the Aussies winnin and extending their series lead to 4-0.

Fourth Ashes Test: Final score

Australia 152: Neser 35; Tongue 5-45 & 132: Head 46; Carse 4-34
