Australian captain Steve Smith reflected on an amazing experience, as Australia regained the Ashes by going 3-0 up in Perth. Smith has set his sights on inflicting England's third whitewash in 11 years. After a delayed start due to damp patches on the pitch and heavy showers yesterday, the victory was sealed moments before tea, when Pat Cummins removed Chris Woakes to secure an innings and 41-run win. Smith, who was named Man of the Match, made a huge contribution, with a career-best 239, while Josh Hazlewood claimed a five-wicket haul on the final day to dismantle England's second innings.
