Your final delivery, to take the wicket to win the test match. Beyond even his dreams, but theres far more to tell about this final day. When travis head and steve smith were batting together, australias victory certainly seemed feasible, even after a lengthy rain delay. The wickets of chris woakes in this match and in this series have really changed things in englands favour. And moeen ali did his bit as the last day spin bowler, despite his groin injury. Now, obviously, remember, the series finished 2 2 so australia retain the ashes. They lifted the urn, but not with the full sense of celebrations theyd have wanted. But they played their full part. The fact is, the teams have been so competitive throughout the weeks, and thats whats revived this historic series. Well, stuart broad said he wanted to go out on top, playing on the biggest stage after a summer hes loved. Hes done just that in a series thatll live long in the memory. I made the decision on friday night you start thinking, what will your last ball will be and how that will be remembered . To get the ball, it was just swinging around a little bit, to get the ball with a couple of wickets left, i managed to bowl at some left handers, one of my favourite things to do in my career, and to catch the edge a couple of times was truly wonderful. This series was anything goes. The last day was always going to go down to the wire and it did. Fantastic series, fantastic day of cricket, but england got up in the end. Yeah, it is no small feat coming and retaining the ashes. England are a really strong side. Coming over here and playing well is really tough, so in some regards a little bit of a missed opportunity, i think of having three cracks to finish the series, but i think we all can be pretty proud on the flight home. No sooner does the ashes finish than the hundred begins, but leg spinner rashid khan has had to pull out of the tournament with an injury. The Afghanistan Captain was due to play for the Trent Rockets in their first three games before leaving for international duty. The number one ranked t20 bowler in the world will be replaced by Pakistans Imad Wasim before new zealands ish sodhi comes in. At the womens world cup, the co hosts australia had to win to make it to the last 16, and they did, in style, beating the olympic champions canada 4 0, while in group c, there was an eye catching win for one of the tournament favourites japan they thumped spain. Ben croucher reports. This could have been australias last dance at their own world cup, but the matildas will keep on waltzing. With the proud home crowd proving the perfect soundtrack in melbourne, it didnt take long to find their groove. Some goals are pretty, all are effective. Hayley rasos Brace Set Australia up for the win that assured safe passage into the knockouts. With huff, puff and scuff, the olympic champions were blown away. Their biggest win at a world cup, a performance full of heart. We know we might not have the best team on paper, we might not have the most top players and the top clubs in the top leagues, but we have Something Else that no one can take away from this team, and thats the identity and the dna and the belief that lives in it. And them being on home soil, with the support as well from the fans, we have something unique which means we know we can beat anyone, any given day, when we come up with our a game. For the republic of ireland, their world cup ended with little but frustration to show for their perspiration. Already out, they came close against nigeria. Nigeria came even closer against them. Neither could find a way through. The goalless draw sees the Super Falcons soar unbeaten into the last 16, where theyll meet the winner of englands group. And ifjapan were hoping to make quiet progress to the next round, they cant deflect attention away any more. A 4 0 thrashing of spain made it three wins from three for the 2011 champions. For them, its norway next. Ben croucher, bbc news. England face china in their final group game knowing a point or better will see them top group d. Though theyve won their opening two matches, theyve not been at their best, and manager Sarina Wiegman is looking for improvements in key areas. Its a different game tomorrow than we had against haiti and denmark. I think we had moments in both games that we played really well, and then we had moments that we lost the ball a little bit too much where they could counter attack. I think that is one thing that we want to keep the patience, keep the ball going. Keep the passing game in a good place and try and create chances, score goals, is what we always want. Thats actually the main thing, i think, to keep control of the game as much as possible, because sometimes thats really hard. Now to the netball world cup, and england, scotland and wales have been taking part in the second stage of the competition in south africa. England made it four wins out of four with victory over tonga. Its a game youd have expected them to win, but they had to work hard for it in a physical match. The final score was 72 46. I think every game has had its difficulties. We have played against them before the competition, so we kind of knew what we were coming up against, but theres definitely things that we need to keep working on, our consistency. That is something that we keep saying after every game and we are slowly getting there and were building. Scotland were beaten convincingly by australia, the worlds number one ranked side and one of the favourites this year. But its a young team thats clearly making progress. They held australia to their lowest score of the tournament, losing 76 37. We got all 12 on court today, fantastic passages of play, and learning experiences. Other than myself it is a really, really young team, so they really learned a lot today. Not Many International sports you see five games in five days, so it is a lot. Between, we rest the legs, but tomorrow is a big competition against tonga and we are going out hard. And wales were outclassed by defending champions new zealand in their pool g match. The silver ferns were 40 16 up at half time, with the match finishing 83 34. Wales face uganda on wednesday knowing they can take plenty of positives from this performance. I think you always want to be tested by the best, and who better than to go up against the defending champions . So a few patches of play, we will be disappointed with. I think we wanted the overall score to be closer. I think we had moments in that game to close the gap, but there were some lovely patches of play that i think well look back on and take forward into the next round. Its been a fabulous opening day for Great Britain at the World Para Swimming Championships in manchester. They finished with four gold medals, two silvers and a bronze. Suzanna hext was first in the s5 50 metres freestyle, while Ellie Challis defended her title in the 50 metres breaststroke. Jessica Jane Applegarth topped a gb one two three in the s14 200 metres freesyle, while simon clegg rounded up the gold rush in the 100 metres backstroke. Heres rachel latham. What a night for Great Britain, with the headline act being the womens 200 metre freestyle s14, where gb secured a 1 2 3 podium finish. Jessica Jane Applegarth clinched the gold after finishing silver position in this event for the last ten years. Her british team mate Bethany Firth tonight won the silver and louise took the bronze. I spoke to the newly crowned World Champion applegate after her race. Absolutely epic. Cant believed it happened because i had a crazy season, where ive torn my disc in my back and im getting really bad sciatic pains. Every illness under the sun coming into trials, and my trials, i have to admit, they were not great trials. So im lucky to even be here. I absolutely crushed training. I can hand on heart say that i gave my Training Everything coming into this. Im so relieved that it paid off. Adding to the excitement, suzanna hext became World Champion for the first time in the s5 50 metre freestyle. Hext, left paralysed after a Horse Riding Accident in 2012, also has a hearing impairment. Recently she underwent an Ear Operation and it has been a game changer. Today was the first day i raced with my cochlear implant. Obviously, going through that has been life changing for me, having bilateral implants, yeah, it felt kind of strange in some ways coming out and hearing the crowd, but it kind of lifted me, and i came out, especially for the final, a home crowd, hearing that roar, it was like, oh, my god, come on it kind of pushes you that bit more. And more gb success came from teenager Ellie Challis, retaining her title in the 50 metres breaststroke and Stephen Clegg stormed to victory, winning gold in the 100 metres backstroke for athletes with visual impairments. That is all your sport for now, goodbye. Hello. July has certainly been a pretty wet month. And we start off the new working week with another dollop of rain, particularly across Northern Areas of the country. So skies quite cloudy like these in cumbria. Its also quite windy as well. And so far this month, we have seen some areas picking up more than three times as much rainfall as during an average july, for example, in preston. So it has been very wet. Even as the area of low pressure that brought the rain on monday starts to edge away, out in the atlantic, underneath this trough in the jet stream, we develop another potent area of low pressure thats set to bring wet and windy weather our way by wednesday. Now, over the next few hours, it is a story of the rain across scotland, Northern Ireland, northern england, gradually turning a little bit lighter and a bit patchier in nature. Its largely dry, though, further south for southern wales, the midlands, east anglia, Southern England. So it should be a fine start to the day for these areas. On tuesday we go, and i think the thickest cloud well see will be across southeast scotland, northeast england, threatening a few patches of rain, probably a few showers running into the north west of both england and wales, but otherwise should be a brighter kind of day. A little bit of Sunshine Poking Out To Northern Scotland and across wales and parts of Southern England as well. Heading into tuesday evening and overnight, that area of low pressure i showed you on the Satellite Picture will continue to develop and will start to swing its way in. And this one will bring quite widespread outbreaks of rain and a swathe of strong windsjust running into its southern flank. So quite wet weather for Northern Ireland, northern england, some heavy rain also pushing into wales and the south west, but it is across the south west of england, really along the south coast, that we could get gusts of around a0 or 50 miles an hour, 50 to 60 perhaps across parts of Northern France and the channel islands. That is likely to lead to some localised disruption. A few trees down and a few ferries across the channel could be affected by those strong winds and large waves as well. Across northern scotland, thats probably where well have the best of the dry weather with some sunshine coming through. Temperatures not that special across the north, not that special anywhere, to be honest. Highs of about 17 21. That low pressure pulls away and for thursday the winds get a bit stronger in Northern Ireland for a time, but elsewhere the winds will gradually calm down. But itll still be quite a blustery kind of day on thursday, a day of bright spells and passing showers. As you can see, as we work deeper into the first week of august, no real change it stays unsettled. Live from washington. This is bbc news.
