England announce squad for SCG Test with massive new inclusions

England is desperate to win the final Test of the Ashes series at the Sydney Cricket Ground and has hence made massive changes to their squad. Despite injuries, they have revamped their squad wisely and would be up defending the honour for Bazball in Australia.

England have lost the Ashes, but they have not lost hope of ending the Ashes tour on a confident note. The MCG Test marked the first win for Brendon McCullum and Ben Stokes’ side; however, many, including several England greats, have claimed it to be a lottery by fate.

Hence, Ben Stokes’ team would be looking to earn a good victory based on true efforts in the final Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground, which could restore the lost honour for Bazball and also reinforce the belief in Brendon McCullum’s strategies.
