ENG 1ST

OUT! Bowled. Michael Neser to Josh Tongue. Seaming in length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, missed. That will be Tea on Day 2. England's first innings comes to a close at 384 runs. The standout moment was the brilliant partnership between Joe Root and Harry Brook, which set the tone for the innings. Michael Neser delivered the breakthrough in spectacular fashion. He pulled off an extraordinary catch to dismiss Root and then cleaned up England in the very same over. With the innings wrapped up, Australia now face the challenge of providing a solid start to their reply. The stage is set for a fascinating final session. Join us again in 20 minutes for the resumption of play.

FOUR! Will Jacks to Alex Carey. Off break length ball, off stump on the front foot driving, well timed past deep extra cover for 4 runs. That's the winning runs. Australia win the series 4-1 and start the year 2026 on a high with an Ashes series victory. A few wickets were lost along the way, but Cameron Green and Alex Carey knocked off the remaining runs in commanding fashion. It was a huge effort from England throughout the series, but they lost a few crunch moments and didn't handle certain pressure situations well. Still, a first Test win in Australia since the 2010-11 series will heal the wounds somewhat. Josh Tongue was impressive in the three Tests he played, picking up 18 wickets, while Brydon Carse and Ben Stokes were warriors for their team. With the bat, Joe Root ticked off two hundreds in Australia, and Jacob Bethell showed there could be a new star for England on the horizon. An amazing series full of highlights comes to an end from Starc's first-over strike to Travis Head's Perth masterclass, Alex Carey's outstanding work behind the stumps, Pat Cummins' one-off Test to clinch the Ashes, Steve Smith's Test hundred at his home ground, and Usman Khawaja's emotional farewell. With all the hype, expectations, and the brand of cricket both teams displayed, this series has inspired fans all over the world. Travis Head is named Player of the Match, while Mitchell Starc takes Player of the Series honours for his superb haul of 31 wickets.
