Jubilant Aussies celebrate Ashes triumph

Australia regain the Ashes

Australia have regained the Ashes from England, after beating them by 150 runs to win the third Test.

Australia are celebrating their Ashes triumph after they defeated England in the third test to seal a series win.

The home side ended a run of three consecutive series defeats against England by taking an unassailable 3-0 lead in Perth on Tuesday.

Captain Michael Clarke said while his side would celebrate the series win, they are still focused on winning the remaining two tests to complete a 5-0 whitewash.
