Sep 8 (CRICKETNMORE) Pat Cummins struck again on the final day of the fourth Test at Old Trafford to get Australia closer to retaining the Ashes. Cummins broke a stubborn 66-run stand between Jason Roy and Joe Denly before getting the big wicket of Ben Stokes to leave Australia six wickets away from victory.

Roy and Denly started on an overnight total of 18/2 with Cummins dismissing Rory Burns and England captain Joe Root off consecutive deliveries in the first over of the England innings towards the end of Day 4. Roy fought on to reach 31, his highest score in a series in which he has mostly struggled for runs.
