Rain frustrates England's women

Match scorecard

England's final one-day international against Australia at Lord's was abandoned as a draw, leaving Charlotte Edwards's team with a 4-0 series win.

In a twice-reduced Australia innings, the tourists ended up with just 100-7 in 31 overs, Laura Marsh taking 3-11.

England's target was 115 from 31 overs, but with the hosts struggling at 6-2 in the third, the rain had the final say.

Having won this series, England defend the Ashes at Worcester from Friday in a single four-day Test match.
