England legend Botham believes his country's win over Australia in the Champions Trophy on Sunday morning is likely to be the first in a long line of victories in their meetings over the next few months.

"Given that we've got back-to-back Ashes series between now and January, if we get a good summer….- make that 10-0," Botham told the Sunday Times.
