Australia's head coach Justin Langer has sought the inspiration of boxer Muhammad Ali and the tale of his stolen bike to inspire his side of the fourth Ashes Test match at Old Trafford.
The tourists came within just one wicket away from retaining the Ashes title at Headingley but Ben Stokes's an unbeaten century and multiple fielding errors delivered England an unforgettable victory to level the series at 1-1.
Langer compared Australia's Headingley loss to the theft of Muhammad Ali's bike in Louisville, Kentucky, which inspired the then-12-year-old to learn boxing in a local policeman's gym.
"Champions have all had times of adversity, whether it's in business, sport or life," Langer told the reporters in Manchester on Tuesday.
"The ones who come back from it ... think about Muhammad Ali getting his bike stolen."
"That was the fire he needed to become the greatest boxer of all time. We felt a bit like we got the Ashes stolen the other day."
"Now we've got to work out what we're going to do, and use that as fire," he added
The Aussies only need one more win from the last two test matches to retain the Ashes in England for the very first time since 2001 and will have their master batsman Steve Smith back from injury at Old Trafford after missing the third test match due to concussion.
"In my opinion, the best practice is match practice," he said. "We rested a number of our first 11 players to give them a mental break and a physical break.
"There were six or seven guys who had a good break in Derby. We got plenty out of that game and we played good cricket."
"To win a three-day game in two-and-a-bit days is a pretty good effort. We're worried about our preparation, not England's."
