The five-game Ashes Test series between Australia and England concluded on Sunday with the Pat Cummins-led squad sealing a 4-0 win against Joe Root and co. Prior to the start of the series, however, there were some doubts as to whether or not the series will continue due to the Covid-19 restrictions in Australia. But the England team arrived in Australia and the series ran smoothly without any hiccups apart from the change of venue for the final test.
Australian batter Marnus Labuschagne took note of the same on Twitter on Monday, thanking everyone associated with the England team for making the series possible.
Thanks to @root66 and the @englandcricket team, staff and families for coming out and making this Ashes series possible. It’s not easy being away from home at the best of times, let alone in and out of bubbles so thanks again and safe travels home,” Labuschagne captioned a message.
