Australia wrap up series before lunch
Australia 267 (Harris 76, Anderson 4-33) beat England 185 (Root 50, Cummins 3-36, Lyon 3-36) and 68 (Boland 6-7, Starc 3-29) by an innings and 14 runs
Scott Boland's six-wicket haul on Test debut allowed Australia to wrap up the Ashes 3-0, by lunch on the third day at the MCG.
Australia's quicks continued their demolition job on England, with Boland adding to his two wickets from three balls during a devastating final hour for the tourists on the second day, taking six wickets in 21 balls in all to seal an innings victory.
Mitchell Starc, whose two wickets had a big hand in reducing England to 4 for 31 in a cauldron-like atmosphere on day two, added the wicket of Ben Stokes inside the first 25 minutes of the resumption, to end with 3 for 29.
But the day - as short as it was - belonged to Boland. After taking 1 for 48 in England's first innings, he was simply unplayable for an England side with its confidence beaten and its batting in disarray.
The task always looked insurmountable for England, even with Stokes and Joe Root still in on the third day, but the emphatic way in which Australia rammed home their advantage consigned the tourists to a new low.
