Wounded England out to avoid a second sweep

England will be battling to avoid another series whitewash in the fourth one-day game against Australia on Friday, and are rallying round their beleaguered captain.

Australia triumphed by seven wickets with 10 overs to spare in the third one-dayer in Sydney on Sunday to lead the series 3-0, with Alastair Cook admitting for the first time he will reconsider his captaincy after the weekend's final 50-overs match in Adelaide.

But England spinner James Tredwell says the team that lost the Ashes 5-0 still has some fight left in it and supports Cook.
