Deputy CEO Clare Connor has promised that the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) will launch an "honest" review into England's 16-0 loss to Australia in the women's Ashes, but stressed that the team did not lack professionalism.

ECB have confirmed they will be conducting post-series review after Heather Knight’s side suffered 16-0 Ashes whitewash

Australia crushed a lamentable England by an innings and 122 runs in a one-off pink ball Test on Saturday to complete a historic women's Ashes whitewash.

It has taken just nine days for Australia's cricketers to retain the Women’s Ashes. The Australians won a fourth straight game in the multi-format series with a 57-run victory in the first of the three T20s between the rivals.

England 's Ashes misery was completed by an innings defeat in the day/night Test as Australia spinners Ash Gardner and Alana King bamboozled their batters in Melbourne to secure a first whitewash win in the series.

Englands Ashes misery complete as they become first side to be whitewashed 16-0 in multi-format series; Heather Knights side beaten by innings and 122 runs in sole Test after six straight white-ball defeats;
