England,  battered in the first 3 and bruised all over in the duration of this New Year's test, they come out on the other side, exhibiting courage and character to complete a fantastic draw in Sydney. Usman Khawaja walks into the squad at number 5 after two years away from the test team. His opportunity comes after Travis Head is out ill and what a statement he made! Twin tons and the 6th Australian to do it. But that wasn't enough to take Australia through as weather also conspried against them.  Bairstow also made a statement of his own with a fighting 100 and a great partnership with Stokes also coming into form. On the 5th day, the game was set up beautifully with Australia needing a wicket to keep the whitewash hopes alive . But No! England's saviour James Anderson blocks it out. What a thriller of a game it was in this Ashes! Hear all about on today's episode of A Conversat-urn. Question to answer: Would you choose Travis Head or Usman Khawaja for the next game?  Let us know what you think about this question. You can do that by... Contacting us here: [email protected].

Scott Boland has a debut for the ages, with 6-7 in the 2nd innings as Australia retain the Ashes, for the 3rd time in a row. With two matches yet to be played, they dismantled England and handed them what is probably the worst defeat of the series. England are in complete tatters and are heading towards a 5-0 whitewash in what has been a disappointing tour. Hear all about it as Kartik runs you through the Boxing Day Test match.
