The Aussie seal the Commonwealth Bank Test Series
Just as expected, Australia won the 2014 Commonwealth Bank Test series against England, better known as The Ashes. They regained the urn from the English hands. It can be considered as a revenge for the 2013 Investec Ashes Series held in London.The English could not perform well. They suffered on the Aussie pitch. They really felt the the thunder down under. They will just hope that they can recover from this loss and strike back in the ODIs.
