Ashes 2023: Cummins Rues 'Missed Opportunities' After 2-2 Draw But Proud Of Retaining The Ashes
AUS vs ENG Ashes Series: Australia's Test skipper Pat Cummins was left to rue missing a golden opportunity for his side to claim a first Ashes triumph on English soil in 22 years after the visitors settled for a 2-2 draw in the series but feeling "proud of retaining the urn". A compelling Ashes series came to a thrilling climax on Monday when England registered a 49-run victory in the fifth and final Test of a closely fought series at The Oval, with the result meaning the five-match series finished tied at 2-2.
While the final scoreline means Australia retain the Ashes for a fourth straight series, the tourists will be disappointed they failed to capitalise on the 2-0 lead they opened up early in the series and missed the chance to record a first series triumph on English soil since 2001.
