England’s middle order together with stubborn tail-enders hang in on the final day of the Test amid the drama for a thrilling draw

England's Jos Buttler and Joe Root leave the field after Australia declared on day two of the Ashes fourth Test, at the Sydney Cricket Ground in Australia, January 6 2022. Picture: DAN HIMBRECHTS/AAP/REUTERSAshes Test against Australia in Hobart with a finger injury, skipper Joe Root said after the visitors eked out a thrilling draw in the fourth match in Sydney on Sunday.

All-rounder Ben Stokes, who has a side strain, and centurion Jonny Bairstow, who injured a thumb during the match, are also doubtful for the Hobart Test beginning on Friday. “That’s quite a serious injury and for him to front up as he did from the moment he took that knock shows how much he cares, shows how much it means for him to play in this team and play for England.”

Root said he felt an “overwhelming” sense of pride at the result that followed heavy losses in Brisbane, Adelaide and Melbourne.
