Fourth Ashes Test – Preview
England host Australia for the fourth Test match at Old Trafford, Manchester. Follow this space for live score and ball-by-ball commentary of the Test.
England clawed back with a win in the third Test match, at Headingley, but they still need to win both the remaining Test matches to regain the Ashes. Anything less than that, and Australia will hold on to the urn until 2025/26, stretching their hold on it beyond a decade.
Manchester Test – Playing XIs
England have named their XI for Old Trafford. They have recalled James Anderson, who will replace Ollie Robinson. Moeen Ali will continue to bat at No.3.
England XI (announced): Ben Stokes (c), Jonny Bairstow (wk), Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Harry Brook, Joe Root, Moeen Ali, Chris Woakes, James Anderson, Stuart Broad, Mark Wood
Australia have named their XI as well. Josh Hazlewood will replace Scott Boland, but a more significant change is the recall of the now-fit Cam Green for off-spinner Todd Murphy. In other words, Australia are set to play a Test match without a specialist spinner for the first time since 2011/12.
Australia XI: Pat Cummins (c), Steve Smith (vc), Alex Carey (wk), David Warner, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Travis Head, Cam Green, Mitchell Marsh, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood
