Andrew Strauss gunning for 5-0 victory
29/06/2010
Andrew Strauss has urged his side to give England fans with ODI tickets
England are currently 3-0 ahead in the five-match series against their old rivals and captain Strauss has called on his players not to go easy on the Baggy Greens in the final two meetings.
Such a crushing defeat of the Aussies could help to avenge the 6-1 defeat which Ricky Ponting's side inflicted on England in their 50-over series in 2009.
Furthermore, Strauss said winning the last two games in front of fans with ODI tickets
He commented: "We're aiming for it - we're in a great position to do that now. We don't want to take our foot off the gas."
But Ponting has other ideas and has expressed his desire to avoid a whitewash, saying his team must "salvage whatever we can" from the remaining games.
