The former captain, Steven Smiths in an interview with Sky Sports said, “It feels amazing to know the urn is coming home.” He had a memorable Ashes series. At Headingley, he suffered a concussion and missed England’s one-wicket win. In spite of this, he recovered with a smashing score of 671 run at an average of 134.2 innings. He adds, “I am incredibly proud of how I have performed and what I have helped the team to achieve.”

Balancing Australia’s success were the bowlers. Pat Cummins was the top favourite among bowlers for taking four wickets for 43, while Josh Hazlewood and Nathan Lyon took two wickets respectively. And Mitchell Starc and Marnus Labuschagne bagged a wicket each.
