England vs Australia Team Preview
England
In this Lord’s Ashes Test, England stayed true to their offensive approach and came dangerously close to taking a 1-0 lead. They will not give in to the Australians and are confident of tying the series.Â
The primary injury concern from the First Test at Edgbaston involved Moeen Ali’s finger, but the seasoned all-rounder is anticipated to be fully well and ready to join the team for this Lord’s Test. Rehan Ahmed has been recalled to the team as a backup in case Moeen gets injured.
Australia
Australia showed incredible fortitude to recover from a difficult first day on the field and triumph in Edgbaston courtesy of some gutsy batting from the lower order. Australia will enter this match with great confidence after winning that game.
Given that left-arm bowler, Mitchell Starc is anticipated to rejoin the team for this Second Test, it would be quite intriguing to observe which starting lineup the Australian team management chooses. Josh Hazlewood is the guy who is most likely to leave the team, with Scott Boland anticipated to stay on.
