The iconic Ashes Boxing Day Test, the fourth in the on-going series between Australia and England (played at the MCG) has concluded within just two days.

The visitors have managed win a Test Down Under for the first time after 2011, an unbelievably long dry-spell, but it won't have any affect on the series result, which the hosts have already sealed with three straight wins.

England's victory also didn't shake up the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) table by much, but did it put an end to Australia's perfect run. Let's take a look at the latest standings.
