Sydney, Australia:

Any hope of England spoiling Australia's celebration party in the fifth and final Ashes test were quickly dashed by the English Men's day two batting collapse and Australia's solid first innings reply.

Australia will surely go for the kill tonight (local time) on day four at the Sydney ground as they have the tourists on the ropes reeling at 114-5 just 12 runs ahead of Australia, batting a second time; the home nation made 393 all out in their first innings.

Shane Warne stroked a gritty 71 to lead his team in his final match of his career.
Scores in the game: England 291 all out (Andrew Flintoff 89; Stuart Clark 3-62, Glen McGrath 3-67, Brett Lee 3-75) & 114-5 (Kevin Pietersen 29 not out; Stuart Clark 2-29, Brett Lee 2-34)
Australia 393 all out (Warne 71; James Anderson 3-98)
Australia has an unbeatable 4-0 lead in the five match test series.
