What a finish! A nail-biter to the very end. Well played to both teams, but in the end, there can be only one winner. England will breathe a sigh of relief after today's match and will be hoping to be more authoritative in the next one. The bowlers were probably licking their lips when they saw the pitch today - the pitch was very sporting, to say the least. Swing benefited greatly throughout the day. Stunning upset and a fantastic result for England! They came into the game as underdogs but showed plenty of grit and determination to fell the more favoured Australias.
