Pacemen Mitchell Johnson, Ryan Harris and Peter Siddle. supplemented by spinner Nathan Lyon, have dominated England&#39;s troubled batsmen, enabling the home side to race to an unassailable 3-0 lead in the five-match series. <img alt="" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/dec/CraigMcDermottA.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 667px;" /> Craig McDermottu00a0 Former Test quick McDermott said on Monday he expects no changes to the Australia team for the fourth Test starting in Melbourne on Thursday. &quot;They&#39;ve all performed as a unit fantastically well,&quot; McDermott said. &quot;We have the best attack in the world at the moment.&quot; He said the bowlers were nursing aches and pains but it was nothing serious. Harris is having treatment on a sore knee, but McDermott said he was confident he will be ready for Melbourne. &quot;I wouldn&#39;t say there&#39;s any doubt, he&#39;s (Harris) just sore,&quot; he said. In contrast, the unsettled tourists, who are trying to avoid the indignity of a 5-0 whitewash, suffered a fresh blow on Sunday when star off-spinner Graeme Swann announced his shock retirement. &quot;That&#39;s their problem, I suppose (Swann retiring). I&#39;m more concerned about how our bowlers are preparing come Boxing Day,&quot; McDermott said. Australian spinner Lyon said he admired Swann as a fellow off-spinner and had no doubt his absence would give Australia a boost for the remaining two Tests of the series. &quot;It&#39;s going to be a positive for Australia, but we still have to come out and pay respect to everyone that goes out there,&quot; Lyon said. &quot;I was shocked. He&#39;s someone I&#39;ve looked up (to). He&#39;s probably been the backbone of England&#39;s attack for a while. &quot;I regard him as one of the best off-spinners I&#39;ve seen.... I&#39;ve certainly learnt a few things just off watching him and talking to him. &quot;He&#39;s been fantastic for England and for cricket, full stop.&quot;
