England vice-captain Nat Sciver admitted she felt “more sad than happy” after the one-off Women’s Ashes Test ended in a draw with Australia following a thrilling finale in Canberra.
After Australia, who would have retained the Ashes with victory, set England a target of 257 runs off 48 overs just before tea on the fourth and final day, the tourists subsequently looked on course for a famous win, needing 45 runs off 60 balls with seven wickets in hand.
