Australia are currently leading 2-1 in the Test series and have retained the Ashes by virtue of their performance. With the final Test remaining, the Aussies will be hoping to take the title whereas England would aim to at least level the series.
The home side were 2-0 trailing after the first two matches, but they came back to half the deficit in the 3rd match at Leeds. But the fourth Test ended in a draw as rain washed out the final day of the match.
England have announced their 14-man squad for the 5th Test and they have an unnamed squad for it.
English batter Zak Crawley has been the highest run-scorer in the series so far with 385 runs, while it has been a struggle for the returning Moeen Ali with the bat, who has amassed only 117 runs at an average of 23.
James Anderson remains in the squad despite struggling in this series. The 40-year-old has played three matches with just 4 wickets in return, his worst ever in an Ashes series.
