England captain Heather Knight has said that her side will be going all out to win the Ashes Test in Canberra, after consecutive wash-outs in the second and third T20s at Adelaide left both sides frustrated at the lack of opportunity to get early points on the board in the series.

Australia won the first match by nine wickets but the second game on Saturday was called off after 4.1 overs, while Sunday’s final T20 was abandoned without a ball being bowled. The series scoreline stands at 4-2 to Australia, and with the Test worth four points, a win is crucial to England’s hopes of regaining the Ashes.
