England Ashes stars ‘refuse to give interviews’ as Australia retain urn due to rain | Cricket | Sport

Former skipper Hussain admits there will be a sense of disappointment in the hosts’ camp after the weather ruined their chances of regaining the urn. He said: “Yeah they will be deflated because whatever you’re trying to achieve and the big picture, and we know what, we know the big picture, Test match cricket, entertainment, the long-term project…

“From where they were, where they’d won one in 17 to where they are now, this is the first drawn game. They’ve had to draw a game because of the weather, not because of how they played.

“They’ve completely bossed this Test, they’ve completely bossed it from start to finish. They’ve been the better team, they’ve been outstanding and the weather has stopped them, not their cricketing ability.”
