Live Cricket Score - The Ashes, 2021-22, 3rd Test, Day 3, Melbourne

IT'S ALL OVER! Australia have beaten England by an innings and 14 runs to win the Ashes 3-0!It was an abject end to a struggling Test for England with the hosts trampling all over the visitors. It was a dream come true for Boland to get the baggy green, but the home boy has bowled beautifully on debut to finish with figures of 6-7 that blew England away. He may be pinching himself to believe what just transpired at the MCG after being just the fourth indigenous player to represent Australia in Test cricket! It's been a special performance from the Australians who have bowled England out for 68.
It all started with Starc, who knocked Stokes over very early on Day 3 and Boland thereafter took over. Only Root stood between Australia and the Ashes, but when Boland eked out the edge, it was curtains. It didn't take as long either with Australia needing just 15.4 overs in the morning session on Day 3 to pick up the remaining 6 wickets to wrap up the Test within 7 sessions. Green knocked over Anderson for the final wicket as celebrations kicked off all over Australia! Take a bow Scott Boland! Player of the Match on debut... It was a one-sided contest in the end, but can't fault Australia for having been relentless. Hope you've enjoyed the fast bowling masterclasses on display in this Test as much as everyone else did. Do join us for the final two Tests. See you then!
