Sir Ian Botham says Australia are 'under the cosh' and feels England can deliver the final blow and regain the Ashes at Trent Bridge.

England went 2-1 up in the thrilling series with a crushing eight-wicket success inside three days at Edgbaston last week.

Alastair Cook's side bounced back from their Lord's nightmare thanks to a match-winning return to Test match action from Steven Finn, who claimed the man-of-the-match award, and Ian Bell, who scored 53 and 65 not out to steer England to victory.
