The Ashes series between England and Australia is turning out to be a crackerjack of a series. The five-match Test series is currently leveled at 1-1 after three Tests. The Ashes rivals are set to lock horns in the fourth Test starting from September 4 at Old Trafford. The third Test match turned out to be an absolute epic with England winning the game by one wicket on back of Ben Stokes’ once-in-a-lifetime-esque knock, which left the losing team, Australia’s coach, Justin Langer “physically sick” of sorts.

“As challenging as this week’s been, it’s been awesome,” cricket.com.au quoted Langer as saying at Old Trafford where the fourth Ashes Test begins on Wednesday.

“I’ve loved this last week of coaching, because you can either sit back and feel sorry for yourself and put it under the carpet, or you can work out ways to make sure we’re up for the first ball (on Wednesday) and then the next Test match. That’s the toughest part of it, we were that close. I actually felt physically sick after it, then I went back to my room and I wasn’t sure whether to cry my eyes out or smash my hotel room,” he added.
