By IANS News December 24, 2021 • 16:19 PM View: 1536

England all-rounder and Test vice-captain Ben Stokes admitted that his team has to produce a better performance in third Ashes Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, otherwise they will concede the series.

He added that the team had honest conversations after losing the second Test at Adelaide by 275 runs. England are 2-0 down in the Ashes and need a change in fortunes at Melbourne to have a chance in winning the urn.
