The urn will be heading back to Australia!

It will be a tough one to take for Ben Stokes' men as rain played spoilsport for England on the 5th day of the 4th Test and saw the match end in a draw and helped the Aussies retain The Ashes.

With the Three Lions needing just 5 wickets for a win on the final day, rain interrupted play, forcing the match to be called off at the Old Trafford.

As a result, England has failed to claim the Urn since 2017-18 as Australia has had it since then. It is the 3rd-longest unbeaten series streak for a team at the Ashes in the post-war era.

England will take on Australia in the 5th Test starting from July 27.
