That's it for now. The rain has won in Canberra, but England look in great shape heading into the T20 World Cup.

We're almost out of here. Don't forget Test Match Special will bring you every ball of the T20 World Cup, starting with Sri Lanka v Namibia at 05:00 on Sunday.

England all-rounder Chris Woakes to BT Sport: "That first over was a bit of a shock for me. I expected the ball to swing but not quite as much as it did.

"As a cricketer you just want to play a full 20-over game rather than be on and off. It would have been nice to get a result, but a frustrating night all round.

"You always look at the bigger picture with the World Cup around the corner. It has been a good series for us. There is no better feeling as a cricketer than winning games, especially against the world champions. So it bodes well for us. We feel pretty happy.

"The summer was a new start with players missing for various reasons. But it definitely feels since the Pakistan tour that the team is in a good place."

As you would expect, Jos Buttler has given an unequivocal endorsement of Ben Stokes' T20 credentials....

"Ben Stokes is a superstar of the game in any format. He hasn't played much T20 recently, but that's OK. He can affect the game with bat ball and in the field. He's someone you want in your team."

Jos Buttler on Test Match Special: "It's been very calm in the group and we've played some really good cricket.

"We've been trying to manage everyone through, so we've had to be a bit careful. Wood and Woakes have come back after a long period of not playing. We're trying as hard as we can to turn up for the first game with everyone fit.

"In the summer we didn't play really good cricket, and we've got back to that in Pakistan and here.

"I hope we can go all the way in the World Cup. There's no pressure on us. We have a good thing going. T20 is unpredictable. It will be good fun and we will be looking forward to it."

Australia captain Aaron Finch: "The conditions just kept getting worse. It would have been nice to get a full game in but it wasn't to be.

"I thought the bowling and fielding was good. When you get two in batters towards the end of an innings it is really tough, so credit to England they outplayed us in all three games.

"We are feeling really good. It is important to take some time to freshen up as a group. It has been a big few months for us with a lot of travelling. So we will take some time away from the game for a bit for a few days and then get ready for the World Cup."

England captain Jos Buttler: "We made good strides in Pakistan and continued that here, so it's really pleasing.

"It can be difficult, but you accept it for what it is. The carrot of the World Cup is very close, so when the conditions are what they are, you have to be a bit careful."

England now move to meet Pakistan in a 'warm-up' in Brisbane on Monday. I'd expect that to be a bit like middle practice - more than 11-a-side, etc.

The rain wins, saving Australia and denying England a clean sweep.

The umpires are heading out to the middle. Remember, play would have to be back under way by 12:45 BST.

In case you don't know, the T20 World Cup begins on Sunday.

England get their campaign under way next Saturday against Afghanistan in Perth.

Get into the mood by picking your England team for that game right here.

You can send it to me if you like. Or not. Whatever you prefer.

It's light rain, in the mizzle category. Potentially it's become drizzle.

The groundstaff are pulling a tarpaulin at the speed you might see a strongman pull a truck - not fast.

It is very light rain. You would play in a T20 domestic game in this, but perhaps not in an international game just before the World Cup.

They're going off! Is the rain saving Australia?

Ridiculous shot from Stoinis, a cut over point for six. Belted.

It's raining again. Five overs makes a match.

Shy at the stumps misses. Stoinis would have been out. It's like Total Wipeout out there.
