Expectations: The Aussies are still on their way to build-up as a strong side as with the retirement of legends still they haven’t yet found substitutes to fill in those boots. Here it should be kept noticed that out of last 5 Ashes series; Kangaroos have only managed to win it once. (Alarming)
On the other hand, team England is well-composing and strong enough to face any of the challenges. Some surprise performances from the star Aussie players can create the difference otherwise it would be as easy as pie for the Englishmen out there.
