Green says no complacency as Australia aim to seal Ashes in Adelaide
All-rounder Cameron Green said Sunday there was no room for complacency in the third Test this week, conscious that Australia let England bounce back from 2-0 down in the last Ashes series.
Australia were on top in England in 2023, winning at Edgbaston and Lord's, before the hosts won two of the last three Tests with the other drawn.
Despite the series ending 2-2, Pat Cummins' side retained the Ashes as holders.
"That's a good reminder for our team to stay really level," Green told reporters ahead of the third Test at the Adelaide Oval starting on Wednesday.
"I think you can at times look a bit far ahead, but that's a great reminder for us to stay as good as we can be and finish it off."
The odds are stacked in Australia's favour on home soil after eight-wicket wins in Perth and Brisbane, with England winless Down Under since their 2010-11 tour.
Ben Stokes' side have been widely panned for their lack of fight and perceived poor preparation, with the team under an intense media glare.
A security guard for the team had a run-in with a cameraman on Saturday as they departed Brisbane airport for Adelaide, with pictures showing him seemingly pushing the Channel Seven operator away.
Green said he had sympathy for England.
"You never like getting filmed, especially when you want to get away from it," he said.
"There's always sympathy for anyone in life that's getting filmed in public or in a private space, it's never a nice feeling."
Australia opener Usman Khawaja said he had recovered from the back spasms that have plagued him all series.
The 38-year-old did not open in the first Test, scoring just two batting at number four in the first innings, and was ruled out of the second, with Travis Head stepping up spectacularly alongside Jake Weatherald.
Whether he slots back in again at the top remains to be seen.
"I'm feeling 100 (percent)," he told reporters on Saturday. "Obviously, I hope to play. I don't really know."
Should selectors stick with Head and Weatherald to open, the 85-Test veteran Khawaja could still bat in the middle order, which would likely mean Josh Inglis making way.
