Nat Sciver-Brunt’s unbeaten 111* could not keep England’s Ashes hopes alive.
In a must win second ODI at the Ageas Bowl, England required 283 to defeat Australia.
Nat took Enland to within touching distance of winning the match.
After scoring three unbeaten centuries against Australia in the last 18 months, Nat was looking for a six off the final ball to win the game. Unfortunately, for England, Nat could only manage a single, giving the tourists victory, and the Ashes, by 3 runs.
Nat finished unbeaten on 111* (10 fours) off 99 balls.
