Hi there! Welcome to Episode 214 of Never on the Backfoot Podcast. England won the fifth Ashes Test by 49 runs to draw the series 2-2 with Australia. Australia had already retained the coveted urn but narrowly missed out on claiming their first Ashes series win in England since 2001. They won the first two tests but lost the third and had looked set to lose the fourth until two days of almost uninterrupted rain led to a draw. The fifth test was finely poised going into the final afternoon, with Australia batting their way steadily past 250 as they chased a huge target of 384. But after a lengthy rain delay, England’s bowlers came out and took the remaining seven wickets to claim the win. On the podcast today, we have Hrishi Sinkar. He is a sports management professional.
