Commentary

This has been Prakhar and myself (Rishab) signing off for the moment. Hope you enjoyed our coverage of this game and the series. Stay tuned for more cricketing action coming your way throughout the day on this space. Until next time, goodbye and take care!

Right then, another fine win for Australia here. They had already wrapped up the series coming into this game but were keen to make it 3-0, which they eventually have. England had all but pride to play for in this game. However, their batters disappointed them once again and the Australian batting line-up was too good to have trouble in getting the job done. Australia set it up nicely with the ball once again and their batters backed it up with a brilliant performance with the bat.

They got off to a great start with that opening partnership between Healy and Haynes, that really took away any opportunity England had as they needed early wickets. They did get both the openers but it was too late by then as they did not have enough runs on the board to play with. Meg Lanning and Ellyse Perry then ensured that they got over the line with that unbeaten stand with Lanning standing out with an unbeaten half-century as well.

England have been completely outplayed in this series losing all three games. They had to win all of them to regain the Ashes but it was going to be a difficult. Australia have thus retained the Ashes trophy. They will be extremely proud of their all-round display not just throughout this series but also throughout the tour. That is it from this game and the series then. Both teams will now head to New Zealand as they carry on the preparations for the upcoming World Cup as well!

Meg Lanning: It's been an outstanding series. I would like to thank England for coming here and being a part of it. It was good to see people come out and stand up and perform for us. I think we had pretty good games. This was a perfect game for us. It was good to have the crowd come in and support us as well and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Heather Knight: It was not the ideal build up but I think we made the best of the situations. We didn't quote win with the opportunities and the last two games are a reflection of it. We didn't quite win certain moments and games. It was a brilliant Test match and great to be involved in it. It was a quick turnaround. Our bowling was outstanding but we need little tweaks with the bat. Looking forward to the New Zealand series.

Tahlia McGrath, Player of the Series: I am enjoying my cricket. Lot of confidence and I love every time I love to don the Australia shirt. It was difficult to break my way back into the side, the best side in the world and I am, loving the fact that I am able to contribute to the team's success.

Annabel Sutherland, Player of the Match: I am enjoying my cricket and it has been a lot of fun with these girls. Just a few little tactics towards the end but it was a good bowling performance all-round from the girls. It's huge (on winning the Ashes). It was a great challenge and we really enjoyed it. It's a lovely ground this and usually a little bit in for the batters out there but the ball was doing its bit.

That is it then! Lanning fittingly finishes off in style as Australia get past with eight wickets and about fourteen overs to spare. Another commanding and comfortable win for them as they white-wash England in the series. Brilliant all-round display and the hosts have been simply dominant all the way through. First time Australia win the Ashes in the multi-format series at home!

36.2 Natasha Farrant to Meg Lanning, SIX! LANNING FINISHES OFF IN STYLE! AUSTRALIA WIN THE ODI SERIES 3-0! Fullish ball on off stump. Lanning hammers the ball over the covers and the ball sails over the long-off fence for a maximum!

36.1 Natasha Farrant to Meg Lanning, no run, full ball into the pads. Lanning drives the ball to mid-off.

Tash Farrant [3.0-0-38-0] comes back into the attack

A good over for Australia as Freya Davies brings her spell to an end here. Australia are not just a hit or two away from sealing this game. This has been a magnificent partnership between Lanning and Perry to guide them through. This simply hasn't gone England's way. Just six runs more needed!

35.4 Freya Davies to Ellyse Perry, 1 run, full ball on middle and leg stump. Perry clips the ball to deep square-leg and settles for a single.

The target is down to single figures now. Just 8 more needed!

35.2 Freya Davies to Ellyse Perry, FOUR! Short ball on middle and leg stump. Perry goes back in the crease and flicks the ball to send it racing down to deep mid-wicket for a boundary.

35.1 Freya Davies to Ellyse Perry, no run, good length delivery on off stump. Perry punches the ball to the fielder at mid-off.

End of a brilliant spell from Ecclestone this despite the fact that England are not going to win this game. She has been highly economical and tight throughout her overs. Although, England would have liked if she could have picked up a few more wickets. Nonetheless, highly commendable with the ball once again here!
