England captain Heather Knight says that the “point to prove” may be a factor that helps the three lions to bounce back from a string of loss and avoid the total ash whitewash.
Starting on Thursday, Australia and England will face a final test match at MCG.
Tourists faced flood tests for the first time at the historic site, facing the possibility of 16–0 whitewashing, losing both white balls 3–0.
“Everyone is really disappointed how we have performed so far,” Knight said on Wednesday.
“We think we have not played our best cricket as a side.
“As a leader, you feel responsible in a way that things are not their best.
“I am probably someone who is my best when I have got a point to prove and I definitely do this this week.”
The bay between the teams looks as big as usual, with no sign of England for the first time since 2014.
Knight said the Seemar Kate Cross, who suffered a back injury against South Africa in December, was not ready to return for a united testing.

He has the support of his players – sting, if it is anticipated, it is said that the team is “100 percent” behind the night – but for England, something may have to be changed to get out of this big game trough, no matter whether He should be a captain, coach, coach or personnel.
Australia can be very strong but England need to be strong.
