The_Munchmaster Posted January 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Yup, it's all over. England 3 v 1 Australia "England won the final Ashes Test in Sydney by an innings and 83 runs to wrap up the series 3-1 and secure their first win down under in 24 years. Australia began play in a hopeless position at 213-7, 151 runs behind, and after a rain delay they were all out for 281 with Steve Smith not out on 54. The crowd, made up almost entirely of England fans, was let in free and produced a superb atmosphere. England captain Andrew Strauss said: "We're delighted with what we've done." Peter Siddle and Steve Smith kept England's champagne on ice in the early part of the day before the players were forced off by rain after less than 25 minutes play. When they returned 40 minutes later in glorious sunshine, Siddle finally went for 43 when slog-sweeping spinner Graeme Swann after a stand of 86. James Anderson removed Ben Hilfenhaus before Chris Tremlett bowled Michael Beer with the score on 281." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
