A number of England's cricket stars have been photographed smoking during their Ashes celebrations.

The team headed towards the Australasia Bar in Manchester after they retained the Ashes on Monday due to rain forcing the third Test against Australia into a draw.

In photographs published by the Daily Mail, Root, Swann and bowler Tim Bresnan were seen lighting up cigarettes in the smoking area during their celebrations.

The fourth Test in Durham is due to get underway on Friday.
