The Ashes is a well-known Test series played between England and Australia in a period of two years. The last series of The Ashes was played during November 2017-18. The hosts, Australia had totally outclassed the visiting English side in the Ashes 2017-18. Australia, led by Steve Smith, won the series 4-0. One match was drawn. Now, the Ashes in 2019 will see a tough competition between hosts England and Australia. While England will look to avenge their previous Ashes defeat, Australia will look forward to avenging their ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 defeat.

The Eoin Morgon-led England had knocked out Australia from CWC 2019 in the semi-final, defeating them by 8 wickets. Australia became a very weak side after David Warner and Steve Smith were suspended for one year due to the infamous ball-tampering scandal, but the team regained its strength after the re-entry of both the batsmen in the team. Ashes 2019: ICC Might Introduce Concussion Substitutes in Test Cricket During England vs Australia Series.

While England is on a high after winning their first World Cup trophy, Australia is on a recovery mode after the arrival of their teammates Steve Smith and David Warner back in the squad. Last time, the Australia team was led by Steve Smith, who was also the man of the series during The Ashes 2017. However, this time it will be interesting to see whom the Australian selectors choose as skipper to lead the team against England. The Ashes tournaments have supported the home team a lot in the past. Hence, the England team will have an upper hand over Australia with the home advantage.
