Australia look to seal dramatic Ashes turnaround

Australia look poised to seal one of the great turnarounds in Ashes history when they take on reeling England in Perth from tomorrow after bulldozing their way to a 2-0 lead.
The Aussies went into the Test series just months after a 3-0 loss in England but the incredible revival of fast bowler Mitchell Johnson triggered big wins in Brisbane and Adelaide.
The home side can take an unbeatable 3-0 lead in the five-match series on the famously fast pitch at the WACA -- Johnson's home ground -- while shell-shocked England, winners of the past three series, are desperately searching for answers.

Rival captains Michael Clarke and Alastair Cook will both play their 100th Tests but it is unlikely both men will be celebrating at the end of it.
England coach Andy Flower has warned that he is not afraid to ring the changes after batting failures in both of the first two Tests and some unconvincing bowling.
"We have taken some serious hits but we do have a squad full of people who are determined to turn the ship around, and that's what we must do," Flower said.

"There will obviously be changes in Perth. I'm absolutely ready to make tough decisions.

"We'll assess those conditions and see who will best be able to help us take 20 wickets."
Batting comparisons between Clarke, 32, and Cook, 28, are indicative of a series that has gone all Australia's way so far after they won by 381 runs in Brisbane and 218 in Adelaide.
While Clarke has scored centuries in both of Australia's thumping wins, for a series average of 71, opener Cook has eked out just 82 runs in four innings at 20.50.
