They won the first two tests but lost the third and were about to lose the fourth until two days of practically continuous rain resulted in a tie.
The fifth test was evenly poised heading into the final afternoon, with Australia methodically hitting their way over 250 as they sought a massive total of 384.
After a lengthy weather delay, England’s bowlers came out and captured the final seven wickets to secure the victory.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
