From Stephan Shemilt BBC Sport at The Oval England captain Joe Root stated levelling the Ashes at 2-2 round off a summer that has been a"huge success" for English cricket. Victory in an incredible final saw England win an initial World Cup in July. Though they failed to recover the Ashes,'' them inspired to an win in victory and the third Test at The Oval ensured the series. "What a summer of cricket it's been," said . England's World Cup final victory over New Zealand came after a super more than had been tied, however, in Headingley, Stokes played one of those all-time terrific innings to lead the hosts for their highest Test run-chase, the final 76 runs coming into a last-wicket stand with Jack Leach. "It's been phenomenal," added the Yorkshire batsman. "That World Cup was incredible, for it to complete how it did, created for fantastic seeing - not just the England games, but around the board. "It was backed up by this equally matched Ashes series. Brilliant support blessed us during along with the cricket was gripping. It was hard to participate in at times if we had been on the wrong end of this. "It's been a huge victory for English cricket and a great chance to spring the game forward in this nation." England's defeat at the fourth Test at Old Trafford ensured Australia could not shed the show and could keep the Ashes. Defending a record which has seen them not lose a home show to Australia since 2001, England levelled the series at The Oval using a 135-run success. "A 2-2 score looks a hell of a lot easier than 3-1," said Root, who has failed to win either of his Ashes series as captain. "It is probably a fair outcome. "There have been instances when we have been out proficient and we have been cluttered to the odd hour here and there, which has cost us, but we have always fought quite hard. "Hopefully this is going to be a massive stepping stone and starting point from where people could kick as a team." And Root his desire to be in charge when England try to win back the urn on the tour of Australia in 2021-22, stating he would like to be ruler for the"long haul". "I'm desperate to do this team forward," he explained. "I'm in a very privileged position to be captain of the Test group and I will do everything I can to get us well prepared for going down there and hopefully doing something quite unique." England all-rounder Ben Stokes:"This was a bizarre feeling in the end. We are happy with what we managed to perform in this match but we couldn't win the Ashes. "At the beginning of summer everyone was so excited with what we had ahead, today the summer came to a conclusion it's been amazing to be a part of as a participant. "I don't think you may ever return and ask what should we'd done this or done that different. It's been a terrific series which has ebbed and flowed and that's revealed in the final result. I think it is a fair effect between competitive teams as Ashes cricket is and everybody else has been treated to a fantastic series and two. "I'll return on Headingley in a couple of years' time with fond memories probably, but I'd swap it winning for your Ashes still." Asked if Joe Root is the right person to take England forward, Stokes explained:"100 percent" England bowler Jofra Archer, who was known as man of the game after taking 6-62 in the first innings:"In the minute I've set an England shirt on it has been enjoyable cricket. I am glad we were able to draw on the series. Jeez... bowling at Steve Smith was a job. I'm glad to see the back of him" Former England captain Michael Vaughan:"Steve Smith has been joy to watch. From where he was Edgbaston, that innings was unique. His staff were gone at 122-8 and the way he played with control and shepherded Peter Siddle. This was one of the wonderful innings. He's been a pleasure to watch. "With England, I think we might observe a shift in strategy the Evaluation team chooses. Perhaps the players will miss the games that are one-day if they are playing with all 3 formats. The Test team requires a little bit of TLC and Joe Root would be the skipper to carry them ahead."
