OUT! Bowled. Moeen Ali to Billy Stanlake. Off break length ball, off stump on the back foot cutting, missed to. Ali picks up his fourth wicket of the innings and Australia are all out for just 205 after Stanlake played an ugly shot to a decent ball. Australia have crumbled to an embarrasing total on what is a good track and a rapid outfield. They are in serious danger of being whitewashed in this series and this batting performance just about summed up their series. Some poor work between the wickets led to two run outs and Ali was brilliant. Both Ali and Curran got double wicket overs and that was pivotal in pulling the Aussies back both times.

FOUR! Marcus Stoinis to Jos Buttler. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed past deep cover for 4 runs. England have done it! ENGLAND HAVE WHITEWASHED AUSTRALIA FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THEIR HISTORY IN ANY FORMAT! What an absolutely fantastic game we have seen here at Old Trafford today, the game went one way and then the other, Australia looked down and out after posting 205 but then England looked to be facing the same fate at 50-5. We have witnessed something unbelievable here today and it's down to that man Jos Buttler who finished unbeaten on 110 to secure the 5-0 victory for England. They have recorded some history here today and it was the 81-run partnership between the main man Buttler and Rashid that took them towards that finish line. Stanlake bowled well for Australia but he just couldn't do enough to take the game away from Australia and the English players are absolutely delighted and rightly so. Australia showed character and talent here today, they showed the grit that they need to get results when missing key players, they can take confidence from that. Ultimately, the English side have shown their versatility in every situation throughout the duration of this series and it just goes to show why they are ranked no.1 in the world.
