Ashes: Australia locked out of traditional post-series drinks with England

• England deny ignoring tourists' invitation to socialise at the Oval after day five
• Khawaja and Ponting fume over controversial ball change

Australia's players were briefly left disappointed after believing they were brushed off for the traditional post-Ashes drinks by England at the Oval after day five.

Australian players were spotted looking into the hosts' dressing rooms after play, before eventually giving up and leaving the ground at close to 10.45pm, shortly after which England emerged.
