Right then! That is all we have from this exciting Test match! The Ashes is reaching the final Test now. The fifth Test will take place at Hobart on 14th January. The first ball is set to be bowled at 8 am IST (2:30 am GMT) but make sure that you join us for the buildup before that. Take care and cheers!
No second guesses here! Usman Khawaja is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH! He says that it was a great fight from England and this is what makes Test cricket great. Adds that Smith was batting really well in the first innings and they wanted to get a partnership there and not thinking too far ahead. Khawaja says that he is enjoying the game despite the ups and downs that he has faced in his career and he loves playing red-ball cricket. Mentions that there is a lot of cricket coming up and hopefully they can carry their current momentum moving forward.
Pat Cummins, Australia's captain, says that it was a great game of Test cricket and they got really close. Adds that a bit less weather would have produced a result for sure. He adds that the forecast was hopeless and it said that Day 4 was going to rain so that played on his mind while making decisions. Says that it was good fun to captain today and lead his bowlers. About giving the ball to Steven Smith over Marnus Labuschagne, he says that Smith talked his way to get the ball in his hand.
Joe Root, the England skipper, says that it was important to draw this game. He adds that it has been a tough tour but he is happy that they have shown grit and determination this time. He mentions that they needed to show character and still have a long way to go as a team but says that he is pleased to see the fight shown by the guys here. He applauds Zak Crawley and says that he has the quality to succeed at the international level and has good technique. He adds that Jos Buttler will be going home as his injury is bad but it is part of playing Test cricket and applauds his fighting spirit.
Stay tuned for the presentation.
The stage was set for Australia to take 10 wickets on the final day but England showed brilliant grit and patience to save the Test here. Looking back, Cummins' late declaration would be probably questioned. If they had given themselves a bit more time, then Australia would have probably won this game. But some things are just not meant to be.
Australia had a lead of 122 runs and they wanted to set a target for England which the visitors would not even attempt to chase. It was once again Usman Khawaja to lead them with the bat. He scored another ton to become the third batter after Doug Walters and Ricky Ponting to score twin tons at the SCG. Cameron Green also got a fifty and Australia had set a massive target of 388 for England.
The first innings for England was an interesting one. They were reeling at 36 for 4 and it looked like they would not be able to avoid the followon either. But a brilliant stand between Jonny Bairstow and Ben Stokes led the recovery. They both took their time but scored quickly once they had their eyes in. Ben Stokes got a fifty and Jonny Bairstow scored a brilliant ton to make sure that they avoid the followon. For Australia, it was a good performance by all their bowlers but it was Scott Boland with his 4 wickets who impressed the most.
The Test started under quite a bit of cloud cover and we had a frustrating Day 1. Players went on and off with almost half the day getting washed out. But still, it was a pretty good show by Australia. Led by a brilliant ton by Usman Khawaja in his comeback Test, the hosts declared at 416 for 8 towards the end of Day 2. Stuart Broad took a 5-wicket haul for England as the rest of the bowlers had a tough time.
Cummins had a decision to make. Who to bowl along with Lyon? Marnus Labuschagne or Steven Smith? Both are not frontline spinners but the former has been bowling quite a bit in the recent past. But the skipper decided to go with Steven Smith. He delivers so often with the bat but now he had the ball in his hand. The golden boy of Australian cricket got the wicket of Leach and Australia were just a wicket away from victory. James Anderson joined Stuart Broad in the middle. This pair has delivered with the ball for England on countless occasions but now they had the bat in their hand. It was all down to Anderson to face Steven Smith in the last over and the pacer delivered once more for his side. Not with the ball, but with the bat!
The second new ball was due and Pat Cummins even had Steven Smith bowl a few overs before it was taken. But it was the bowling of Nathan Lyon that provided them with the wicket of Ben Stokes. That opened up the lower order with the second new ball in hand. That proved to be a gamechanger as Pat Cummins got two wickets in the same over and then Jonny Bairstow's resistance ended too. With two wickets remaining, the Aussies smelled victory especially with the new ball in hand and their pacers breathing fire. But Jack Leach and Stuart Broad frustrated the bowlers and kept their hopes alive. The Aussies tried everything from bouncers, to yorkers, to length deliveries but couldn't break this stand. It got to a point where the umpires decided that pacers can't bowl due to bad light.
Plenty of fight was shown by England in this innings. First, it started with Zak Crawley playing his natural game and scoring a sublime fifty. The rest of the batters did go in a bit of shell but the fight was there. The stand between Ben Stokes and Joe Root was particularly good as they played more than 150 deliveries in the middle. It was expected that the wicket of Joe Root would trigger a collapse given that the three main batters after that were nursing injuries but England did not give up. Despite struggling with a side strain, Ben Stokes carried out really well and got to his fifty. His stand with Jonny Bairstow took England to the last session of the game and there must have been a few nerves in the Aussie camp then.
Phew! What a game that was! Probably the last time that James Anderson will play at the SCG and he delivered for his team. A nail-biter and England will take heart from the fact that they showed plenty of fight in this match. This is why we love Test cricket. The series might be done but both teams gave it their all till the very last ball to get the desired result!

OUT! TAKENNNNN! SMITH HAS DONE IT! He tosses it well, around off. Leach has to play at it. But the ball takes the outside edge. It goes towards first slip after taking a small deflection off Carey's gloves and David Warner takes a good low catch to his right. First wicket for Smith in 6 years and what a time to get it! He is surrounded by his teammates! Jack Leach who played so well so far has to walk back now, disappointed. This is getting quite intense and exciting here. Test cricket at it's best!

A length ball nipping into Leach. He looks to defend but the ball beats his blade and brushes his pads on its way to keeper.

स्कॉट बोलैंड To जॉनी बेयरस्टो
This is insane! The fielder wants that ball to go for a boundary while the batter wants only a single. A full ball on middle. Jonny Bairstow drives it past mid on but the ball fails to clear the fence. Nathan Lyon casually runs behind it while Jonny Bairstow casually takes a single. All this because Jonny Bairstow wants Leach to face the last ball and keep the strike for the next over.

Boland bowls this around leg. Jonny Bairstow looks to clip it but misses. The ball brushes his pads. Mitchell Starc dives to his right from leg slip and Carey to his left to catch it but they both fail to pouch it. There is no bat involved anyway.
Drinks break! The last hour of play begins. The match will go on for an hour or at least 15 more overs. 3 wicket-taking deliveries and Australia will have a 4-0 lead while going for the final Test at Hobart. How long can Jonny Bairstow hold off? Australia have gone back to Scott Boland to provide them with a wicket.

Cummins goes slightly fuller around off. Jack Leach resists the drive and leaves it alone. Jack Leach can bat solidly and he has shown that at this level earlier. An interesting passage of play coming up.

All English hopes on Jonny Bairstow. He needs to pull off a Headingley here. Not go for the win of course, but save the Test with Jack Leach as his partner. Seems very tough though.

OUT! LBW! That is as plumb as it gets! A yorker, on off. Wood fails to get his bat down in time and gets hit on the boot. That has hurt him but there is a big appeal and the finger goes up right away. Wood has a word with Bairstow and he knows that he is likely out but the review is taken with a second left on the clock. The replays roll in. No bat on that and the ball is hitting the stumps! This over has changed the game and Australia can smell the victory.

OUT! LBW! GONE! First wicket for Pat Cummins in this innings and what a time to strike! He bowls a fiery yorker, on middle. Buttler looks to flick it away but the bat hits the left boot and the ball goes onto hit the back pad! There is a big appeal but the umpire is unmoved. The review is taken by Cummins. UltraEdge shows a spike but that is of the bat hitting the boot. Ball Tracker rolls up and it has three reds! Mark Wood is the new man in.
Review! Australia have taken a review for LBW against Jos Buttler. Replays roll in and the Hotspot shows no bat involved. Ball Tracker rolls and it shows Three Reds. So the decision will be reversed and Jos Buttler has to walk back. Big wicket for Australia.

Jaffa! Beautiful bowling. Cummins comes wide of the crease and pushes the ball in through the air towards the ball. It lands around off so Buttler is forced to play at it. But it shapes away after landing to go past the outside edge.

Cummins decides to take the review though. There is no bat on that, in fact, the umpire doesn't need more than one replay to ask for Ball Tracker. The ball would have been going down the leg stump.

OUT! TAKEN! GONE! Lyon does it! Stokes is furious with himself and he cannot believe what has just happened! He thinks about slamming his bat on the ground for a brief moment. This is good bowling by Lyon. A bit of drift, a bit flatter, on off. Stokes stays in the crease looking to block it out but Lyon gets a bit of turn and gets the outside edge. The ball goes to Steven Smith at first slip. He fumbles a bit but manages to hold on! Australia needed to break this partnership and they have finally broken through before the second new ball.

Right then. The final session is underway. Nathan Lyon is unlikely to get many overs to bowl once the second new ball is taken so it is likely that he could bowl before that. Also, a good move by Cummins to go Boland right away as he has looked their best bowler so far.

... DAY 5, SESSION 3 …
A beautiful piece of bowling by Scott Boland saw Joe Root walk back but apart from that, it was an uneventful session. The English batters have done well so far but they will face a big challenge when the second new ball will presumably be taken by Pat Cummins. These two batters haven't let their injuries hamper them so far and would want to see their team to safety. Pat Cummins would need to be innovative and lead from the front now. 35 overs and 6 wickets, one would feel that 2 more wickets and Australia will seal the game, but given the grit shown by the English batters in this game, one shouldn't count them out just yet. Do join us at 10:30 am IST (5 am GMT) for the final session.
This is going right down to the wire! England have lost Root but apart from that, it has been a good session for them. Bairstow and Stokes are fighting with all their might in the middle. This sets up a brilliant final session with the second new ball just 13 overs away.

Direct hit could have been curtains for Jonny Bairstow! Length ball, on the pads. He gets the inside edge towards deep square leg. He wants the second and sprints back for it. But the throw comes in and it looks on target. Bairstow dives and luckily for him, the ball misses the stumps. Good work by Carey though. The square leg umpire has a word with him and Carey immediately says that it is not out. Replays show that his hand brushed the stumps while the ball missed out. Saved time for all of us did Carey.
Incredible consistency by Scott Boland. Mark Howard on air talks about the 'hanky' referring to bowlers bowling at the same spot over and over with great consistency but he reckons that Boland has shrunk the hanky further due to his brilliant consistency.

OUT! TAKEN! The dream continues for Scott Boland in Test cricket! He must be over the moon currently! That is the big wicket of Root and Australia are delighted now. Boland bowls a length ball, around the fifth-stump channel. Root puts in half a stride to block it. But the ball moves away just enough to get the faintest outside edge! Carey does the rest and Root is disappointed. He cannot believe it and he stays in that position for a couple of seconds after playing that shot.

FOUR! Thumped away but that will hurt Stokes! Any time that he plays a cross-batted stroke, he has a grimace on his face. Short, on middle. He rocks and pulls it away for a boundary. That brings up the 50-run stand and these two are looking quite good now.

Wonder when Lyon will be brought back on. He has bowled quite well and got the wicket here but hasn't bowled much. With the pitch not doing much for the pacers, might be worthwhile to have him operate from one end. His first spell was only a 3-over one and the second one was 6 overs. No long spells so far.

Some news about the Ashes then. No, not from this game but for the next Test. Josh Hazlewood has been ruled out of the fifth Test as he has failed to recover from the side injury that ruled him out. Also, Sam Billings has been called up to join the English side after Jos Buttler and Jonny Bairstow got injured in this game. He drove 9 hours from Brisbane to reach Sydney and he was reportedly 90 minutes away from taking a flight back home!

This will be a test for Pat Cummins the captain too. He will have a couple of things on his mind. Rain and bad light. England will not go for a win now but if these two put on a good stand then Cummins could be under a bit of pressure. Will be interesting to see how he responds then.

We are back for the middle session! Australiam players stride out to the middle. Joe Root and Ben Stokes jog out to resume their innings. Mitchell Starc will start with the ball for Australia and Joe Root will be on strike to face him. Here we go...
UPDATE - 8.18 am IST (2.48 am GMT) - The rain has eased down at SCG. The groundstaff are in the middle doing their work. Hopefully, we will get some action soon. The covers are coming off! We have start time folks! Play will resume at 8:40 am IST (3:10 am GMT).
As Covid-19 seems to be taking center stage again, there are some question marks arising on the scheduling of the India- West Indies series that is set to start on February 6. The six white-ball games are originally scheduled to take place at six different venues but there have been reports that the BCCI might conduct these games in just one or two venues. Nothing official as of now, just unconfirmed reports.
Meanwhile in Christchurch, the second Test between New Zealand and Bangladesh is underway. The toss was won by the visitors but it is New Zealand who have dominated the game. A fifty by Will Young and a brilliant ton by Tom Latham has taken them to 184/1 at the end of the 48th over. They would now look to put on a massive score in the first innings after losing the first game of the series to Bangladesh. Do join my colleagues just by switching tabs as they bring you all the action from that game. We will bring you updates from Sydney as and when we get them.
UPDATE - 7.38 am IST (2.08 am GMT) - There is some bad news folks! We should have been starting in a few minutes time but the rain has started pouring in at SCG. The covers are on and hopefully, this will not be a long delay. It is light rain so it is not terminal for sure.
... DAY 5, SESSION 2 …
Post the wicket of Crawley, Stokes and Root have gone quiet. They are simply looking to block each and every delivery. There were a couple of big heaves by Stokes and one by Root each but other than that, they have been content with blocking and leaving. How long they continue to bat like this remains to be seen though. Another big issue would be the injuries of Bairstow and Buttler and how well they manage to bat here. A tough session awaits England but if they can manage to get through the next session without much damage, then the Aussies would be under a bit of extra pressure with bad light likely to play a role later on. Do join us for the second session at 7:40 am IST (2:10 am GMT) to find out which team gets closer to their desired result here.
A nice session for the Aussies. They were a bit flat at the start but knew that it was only a matter of time before a wicket came. Hameed was dropped early but the tall Boland continued his dream run in Tests to get that wicket. Malan too did not last long and Australia had their second. But there was one batter who must have made the hosts a bit nervous and that was Crawley. Boy, the tall right-hander was looking in sublime touch. Punishing the bad deliveries and scoring at a nice pace. The question was who will get the wicket of Crawley? Green obliged when he served a brilliant yorker and ended Crawley's innings and that wicket put Australia right on top of the game.
A really good session for Australia as they have sent the English top order back early. The rain stayed away thankfully and the Aussies have two more sessions to go 4-0 up in the Ashes.

What must be going on in Root's mind? He is one of the best batters in the world, capable of scoring runs in any conditions and any format but his captaincy and the team's result must be weighing on his mind. How does he in such a situation then just ignore those thoughts and focus on saving the Test for his team? A tough task indeed.

This is going to be a test for England now. Stokes is injured and so are the next two batters slotted to come in after him. Plus, their natural game is to look for runs constantly but the match situation requires them to show tremendous patience. Will be interesting to see how these supremely talented players respond.

कैमरन ग्रीन To जैक क्राउली OUT!
OUT! LBW! And, out of nowhere, Green produces a corker of a yorker! Nicely done by him. He pushes Crawley back in his crease and then fires in the perfect yorker. Right on the middle pole. Zak Crawley looks to get his bat down in time but fails to do so. The ball hits him low on the pads and the umpire raises the finger right away. That looks plumb but Zak Crawley has a word with Root and then decides to review it. It looks like a review taken in hope. The TV umpire checks Hotspot and UltraEdge but finds no evidence of any bat on it. Then comes the Ball Tracker, impact in line and it is hitting the middle of the middle stump! Zak Crawley walks back to the hut after what has been a brilliant knock by him. A delight to watch and cover this knock by the young lad.
Review! Zak Crawley has been given LBW here! It looks dead straight! The replays roll in and Hotspot shows no sign of bat involved. There is nothing on UltraEdge either. The Ball Tracker rolls in and it shows THREE REDS. So Zak Crawley has to walk back and Australia get the third wicket.

Drinks! That wicket would make Australia very happy. The English batters were having a good session so far but are in a spot of bother now. With Stokes, Buttler and Bairstow carrying injuries, the onus lies on Crawley and Root now to bat for a long, long time. The Aussies just need to be patient and keep sticking to their plans. Smith is having a word with the broadcasters. He mentions that they are trying to bowl at the stumps and hoping that the Day 5 pitch will have some uneven bounce to assist them.

OUT! BOWLED! This one skids through and shatters the off stump! A natural variation from Lyon that goes straight on with the arm. He bowls this on off and quicker in pace. Malan stays on the back foot and looks to play it square on the off side but misses. The ball shatters the off pole and Dawid Malan departs. Australia get the second wicket just at the stroke of Drinks and they will be looking to capitalise on it now. England have started cautiously and they will hope that they can go to Lunch without further damage,

FIFTY for Zak Crawley! A brilliant innings and his team would like him to get a big one here! A fuller ball on off. Zak Crawley drives it to covers and gets a single. Top innings so far. The English openers have not had the best of series here but this lad has looked quite solid, at least in this game.
Right then. Time for some spin action as Nathan Lyon will bowl now. He will likely play a big role here. A silly point, a short leg and a slip in place for him.

OUT! TAKEN! This time Carey takes it! He redeems himself! Ruthless Boland provides Australia with the first wicket to get them started. The best opening stand for England in the series comes to an end. They looked together so far but Hameed has to depart now. Boland yet again hurls a length ball, right on the off pole. As we have seen many times in the series, Hameed looks to block it from the crease with his feet glued to the crease. The away movement takes the outside edge. Carey dives to his right now and takes it nicely. Australia have the opening now and would be ruthless.

DROPPED! Second catch that Carey has dropped in this game! Full, on off. Hameed is once again looking to block it from the crease. He gets a nice healthy outside edge but the ball is dipping on its way to the keeper. Carey dives low and to his right with his right hand stretched out but the ball hits the wrong part of the glove and the catch goes down!

Was there an edge there? Length ball, around off. It shapes away a bit after landing and beats Crawley's attempted defence. There is a noise as the ball goes past the bat and even a mild appeal but the umpire is not interested. Marnus Labuschagne is the excited one as he says that he heard a noise but Cummins is not convinced and opts against the review. Good decision as Hotspot and UltraEdge show nothing.
Interesting conversation between Adam Gilchrist and Shane Warne. The former keeper-batter feels that these two batters should look to play their natural game here. Going in a shell and looking to block it out may not suit every batter. Warne says that Hameed would be happier to block every ball away as it suits his natural game but Crawley is someone who likes to score runs and he shouldn't look to go in a shell. Both of them agree that there is not a one-size-fits-all solution though.

How will the English batters approach the final day? Attack is the best form of defence. This is a phrase thrown around way too many times but by no means it is expected that the batters will 'attack' here on Day 5. The other option is to go in a shell and undertake a blockathon. But doing that for 98 overs will take heaps of patience as a player. Well, the middle path of punishing the bad balls and respecting the good ones is the most ideal one but it is easier said than one.

A mild appeal right away! Length, on middle and leg. Hameed gets rapped on the pads. It pops up to Harris at short leg and there is a polite inquiry but not given.
Here we go! Live visuals show the openers walking out! Australian players stride out to the middle. The English openers, Zak Crawley and Haseeb Hameed jog out to the middle as well. Haseeb Hameed will be on strike and Scott Boland will start with the ball for Australia. Here we go...
Well, the English team could take inspiration from how India played in Sydney in early 2021. Chasing a target of 407, the Indian team earned a well-deserved draw. Despite the injuries to Pujara, Pant, Vihari and Ashwin, these four batters batted with all they had to save the game. The stand between Ashwin and Vihari was particularly impressive as they were struggling big time with their injuries but made sure that the series stood 1-1 going into the final Test. It is quite unlikely that this English side would go for a win here but a draw is within the realms of expectation and would be a big morale booster for the visitors given how the series has gone.
The first session could well turn to be the deciding session of this Test match and whichever team manages to clinch it would get a big boost in their attempt to get the desired result at the end of this Test. It is time for England to show some character as a Test side. Can they salvage a draw here? Or will the rampant Australian team take a 4-0 lead in the series? We have mentioned that there are 98 overs to be bowled but rain is a big factor. It stayed away on Day 4 but the weather in Sydney has been quite unpredictable during this game. Well, let us hope that the weather gods stay away.
England have shown the fighting spirit they lacked throughout the series in this Test match. Their performance with the bat in the first innings will go a long way in building their confidence coming into the final day and with some astute batting they can salvage a draw here. The pitch is still decent to bat and if English batters bat to their potential we might see some happy English faces at the end of this Test match. But how they play the GOAT, Nathan Lyon, here would be a big, big factor on Day 5. England would also hope that the fitness of Bairstow and Buttler doesn't hurt them. Australia, on the other hand, will go all out to get those 10 wickets required and they have shown time and again in this series that they are more than capable to do so.
Hello and a warm welcome to Day 5 of the fourth Test match between Australia and England. The series has been dominated by Australia so far and this is the day for England to redeem themselves. By that, I don't necessarily mean winning the game here. The equation is quite simple - Australia need 10 wickets to win this Test match and England need to bat out 98 overs to save this Test. They also need 358 runs to win this Test but even the most optimistic English supporters will not have that equation in their mind. England might also get some help from rain but let's hope that it’s cricket that will take the centre stage for the most part of the day.
... DAY 5, SESSION 1 …
Right then. This is the game. 98 overs. 10 wickets. A bit of wet weather. How will Sunday pan out? The first ball will be bowled at 4.30 am IST (2300 GMT), WEATHER PERMITTING. But our buildup will begin well in advance. So do tune in early then. In the meanwhile, you can catch all the action from the Big Bash and also the first ODI between West Indies and Ireland. Also, Sunday marks the opening day of the second New Zealand-Bangladesh Test and as per the instagram post by the Black Caps, one can hardly differentiate between the grass on the pitch and beside. Enjoy the carnival of cricket but do remember to catch the fifth day's action here and see if we get a good game of cricket. ADIOS! TAKE CARE!
All is not gloomy for England, though. They may not be in a position to win this game but certainly can make a statement with a solid batting display in the fourth innings. They will hope for some help from the weather but would ideally prefer to get the draw by grinding it out, than by luck. They have begun well, with Adam Gilchrist informing on air that this is the best opening stand for England in the series!
That ends a mixed day of cricket. Australia began well, dismissing England off quickly but then the visitors fought back with the ball, taking 4 wickets reasonably quickly. However, the Khawaja-Green stand just pushed the English out of the Test.

And again, slants this one across from outside off, Crawley watches it go to the keeper. Be ready for a full inswinger now.

मिचेल स्टार्क To जैक क्राउली
On the fuller side just outside off, Crawley shoulders arms to this one. Starc looking for that inward movement but none so far.
Some issue with the side screen. Actually with the public sitting behind it.

पैट कमिंस To हसीब हमीद
Going down leg! Angled into the pads. Hameed looks to flick but misses to get hit on the pads. A huge appeal but turned down.

The ball seems to be coming on nicely at the moment! Angled into the pads, skids through. Hameed clips it but the short leg fielder makes a good stop.

Good leave! That was the one which comes in. The length is slightly short. Hameed picks it and leaves it well by covering his off pole.

Starts off with one on middle, Crawley walks across and works it on the leg side for one.
Who will bowl from the other end then? It is the skipper, Pat Cummins.

मिचेल स्टार्क To जैक क्राउली
England and Zak Crawley are off the mark! A length ball, a little bit of inward shape. Crawley tucks it to mid-wicket and takes a quick single.
