England draw with Australia in T20I series after defeat at Old Trafford | News

England vs Australia at Old Trafford, Manchester

England’s T20I series decider against Australia was called off without a ball being bowled at Old Trafford on Sunday.

The series ended in a 1-1 tie.

The forecast never seemed to allow for any meaningful play to take place in the third T20I and the umpires eventually called it quits at 4:20 pm local time, almost two hours after the scheduled start.

Australia won the series opener by 28 runs in Southampton before England levelled the series with a three-wicket victory in Cardiff.

The first of five one-day internationals between the teams begins on Thursday at Trent Bridge. Harry Brook, a 25-year-old batsman, will captain England for the first time in the series after Jos Buttler was ruled out with a persistent calf injury.
