England won the final Ashes Test in Sydney by an innings and 83 runs to wrap up the series 3-1 and secure their first win down under in 24 years.



Australia began play in a hopeless position at 213-7, 151 runs behind, and after a rain delay they were all out for 281 with Steve Smith not out on 54.



The crowd, made up almost entirely of England fans, was let in free and produced a superb atmosphere.



England captain Andrew Strauss said: We're delighted with what we've done.



Peter Siddle and Steve Smith kept England's champagne on ice in the early part of the day before the players were forced off by rain after less than 25 minutes play.
