			If this is Australia's last taste of international cricket at the WACA, it is a sweet one. Steven Smith's men regained the Ashes on the final day of the third Test against England, despite a controversial three-hour delay to the start of play caused by rain seeping into the pitch through the covers. If that was an inauspicious beginning for the WACA's last day as an Ashes venue - and possibly as an international ground full-stop - the Australians cared little by the end of the day, with the urn back in their grasp.
England needed to bat close to 70 overs to have any chance of clinging on to the Ashes. They managed to hold on for less than half of that. It was hardly surprising, for the cracks on the pitch made batting really challenging; one delivery from Josh Hazlewood actually flew from a leg-stump line straight to first slip. So, not only were England struggling to find answers, it wasn't always clear what questions would be asked of them.
