England announce squad for SCG Test with massive new inclusions

England are desperate to win the final Test of the Ashes series at the Sydney Cricket Ground and have therefore made massive changes to their team. Despite the injuries, they reorganized their team wisely and would defend the honor of Bazball in Australia.

England lost the Ashes, but they did not lose hope of ending the Ashes tour on a confident note. The MCG test marked the first victory for Brendon McCullum and Ben Stokes’ team; however, many, including several of England’s greats, claimed it was a lottery of fate.

Therefore, Ben Stokes’ side would be looking to achieve a fine victory based on genuine effort in the final Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground, which could restore the lost honor for Bazball and also build confidence in Brendon McCullum’s strategies.
