(Reuters) - England captain Joe Root has backed his side to achieve "something special" at this year's Ashes in Australia after they registered a second consecutive test series win at home with a three-day victory over West Indies.
A nine-wicket win in the third and final test against West Indies sealed England's 2-1 victory under Root's leadership following a 3-1 triumph over South Africa.
