The Ashes 2021-22 concluded on Sunday with hosts Au❀stralia winning 🎐the fifth and final Test by 146 runs to hand over England a 4-0 defeat 🃏in the five-match series. The visitors produced a fightback in the🧸 fourth Test in Sydney, which ended in a draw, to make inroads for their consolation victory in the Hobart Test.
However, another batting collapse saw the Joe Root-led side face an embarrassing defeat. England needed 271 to chase, and their openers gave a solid start, adding 68 runs for the first wicket. But once Cameron Green got rid of Burns right before the tea, it opened 💮the floodgates as Aussies packed the English team for just 124 to win the contest by 146 runs.
