Australia posted a massive score of 371 in the first innings thanks to a 106-run knock of Alex Carey, while Usman Khawaja, turning up at number four, nailed a fine knock of 82 runs before Mitchell Starc, amassing 54 runs in 75 balls at a strike rate of 72, with the help of nine boundaries, as they posted 371 in the first innings.

England had the chance to bat long and deep and rule the hosts out of the contest, but their first innings score of 286 was never going to be enough. Still, they showed fight in the fourth innings. The only issue was their schoolboy errors from the batters, including Harry Brook, who aimed at reverse sweeping Nathan Lyon, only to lose his leg stump.

On the fifth morning, Jamie Smith and Will Jacks showed grit and patience, but all was too late and little to save the game as Australia retained the Ashes 3-0 with an 82-run victory.
