- England win series but tourists reclaim No 1 spot in T20 rankings
Australia now travel to Old Trafford comforted by their first victory of the tour. Their target of 146 was none too demanding and they won the third T20 against England by five wickets with three balls to spare.
There were a few stutters along the way caused by another excellent spell by Adil Rashid, who conjured three wickets, but Mitchell Marsh and Ashton Agar kept their heads at the end for a victory that returns Australia to the top of the world T20 rankings at England’s expense.
