That's the end of the game and Australia wrap up a massive victory winning by 6 wickets. England was never in the game but that is more down to Australia's excellent performance than it was the former's poor effort. The bowlers were probably licking their lips when they saw the pitch today - the pitch was very sporting, to say the least. All of the disciplines benefited greatly throughout the day. England really were on a hiding to nothing. They were never expected to win today against Australia and that's exactly how it played out.
