Dec 22 (Reuters) - Captain Ben Stokes believes ‌England can build on the positives from their loss in the third Ashes test ‌to Australia in Adelaide as they look to claim the country's first win ‌Down Under in almost 15 years in the series' two remaining tests.

Australia's victory at the Adelaide Oval on Sunday ensured they retain the urn with an unassailable 3-0 series lead but an improved England batting performance in their second ‍innings has given Stokes hope for the matches in Melbourne ‍and Sydney.
