Listen to the Sky Sports Ashes Podcast as Nasser Hussain, Mark Butcher and Bob Willis join Rob Key to reflect on England's defeat in Perth - and look ahead to the Boxing Day Test in Melbourne.
The clash at the MCG will see England look to end Australia's hopes of a whitewash, with Steve Smith's side having regained the urn at the WACA with an innings and 41-run triumph on day five.
Nas, Butch and Bob look at why England find themselves 3-0 down - read more on that here - and ponder whether the places of the out-of-sorts Alastair Cook and Stuart Broad are in jeopardy.
England's paucity of pace bowlers and the reason for it are also discussed, with Nasser pretty clear on his views…
"County cricket is not a great breeding ground for fast bowlers - they play, travel four hours, get stuck in traffic, sleep in a different hotel bed, wake up exhausted, go again and lose pace."
For all that, praise for Dawid Malan and Craig Overton, Nasser explaining how England need to look after Root, and Bob adamant the tourists should not hand Test caps out like "confetti" in Melbourne and Sydney, download the Sky Sports Ashes Podcast now!
