In a disappointing turn of events for England, Australia have retained the Ashes after the fourth Test at Old Trafford ended in a rain-affected draw, with bad weather meaning no play was possible on Sunday`s final day.
The result ensured Australia, as the holders, kept the Ashes at 2-1 up with one match left in the series -- regardless of the result of next week`s fifth Test at The Oval.
