Mitchell Starc has insisted that Australia will fight to the end to retain The Ashes, despite their impending defeat in the fourth Test.
The Baggy Greens were reduced to 241-7 in their second innings still 90 runs adrift of forcing England to bat again at Trent Bridge, leaving Alastair Cook's men on the brink of reclaiming the urn.
However, Starc is adamant that he will be doing everything in his power to keep his side's fight alive for as long as possible on day three.
He told reporters: "It was less than ideal yesterday but it is what it is. It's a tough day and you've got to move on. It's just a game of cricket, they're important days but you've got to move on. Learn from yesterday and the week before. We'll do that tomorrow, wake up, go hard and go right to the end.
"We're not going anywhere, we'll wake up in the morning and go again. There's a lot of work to do to find any way to draw this game or win this game, but we'll fight right to the end, right to the last wicket, last run, it's just in our nature. A tough couple of days but we're not going anywhere."
Starc claimed his best bowling figures in Test cricket on day two.
