The recently concluded Ashes was completely dominated by Australia and they won the series by 4-0. Throughout the series, Australia outplayed the English in all departments. For England, no batsmen except for Joe Root and Dawid Malan were comfortable at the crease and also the bowlers were unable to take 20 wickets of the opposition.
Sam Billings featured for the visitors in the last Test at Hobart. He managed scores of only 29 and 1 in the first and second innings of the debut Test. He was impressive with his glovework and grabbed five catches behind the stumps in the second innings. Billings said on social media that his childhood dream of playing an Ashes Test was fulfilled with the debut.
Just want to acknowledge the incredible amount of messages and support I’ve received over the last few days. Thank you to everyone!

Truly fulfilled a childhood dream to play a Test match for England in the Ashes.
Australia won on the back of a perfect bowling performance and they will now try to replicate the same in the upcoming series.
