Steven Finn insisted that England's pre-series enthusiasm had not been extinguished by a chastening third day against Australia at the Gabba.
Finn ended the day with career best figures of six for 125 after blasting out the last four wickets in quick succession, but prior to that Mike Hussey (195) and Brad Haddin (136) had shared a record stand of 307 to swing the first Test firmly in Australia's favour.
Following Peter Siddle's first day hat-trick, this is shaping up to be a morale-boosting outing for the Baggy Greens, but Finn says the tourists refuse to be downhearted.
'A couple of hard days of Test cricket aren't going to knock it out of us as a unit, that's the nature of Test cricket and we're set up to deal with it.
'We're looking to get going and get back on track. We're just going to take it session by session and over by over.
'It was tough but as a unit I thought we stuck to our task and bowled well.'
