The England team are keen to get back their arch-rivals. After a 4-0 loss last year, the England team struck back with an unorthodox aggressive style of play, popularly known as Bazball. This new style brought instant success but come the Ashes, bazball didn’t hold ground against the mighty Aussies.

Now with the series at stake, the Three Lions have made three changes to their playing XI. Moeen Ali, Mark Wood and Chris Woakes will replace the trio of Ollie Pope, Josh Tongue and Jimmy Anderson
