England vs Australia 4th Test: Latest Odds, Team News, Date, Time & Location

Thanks to Chris Woakes, Mark Wood, Harry Brook, and a heroic first-innings knock from skipper Ben Stokes, England are still alive in the Ashes.

The Headingley Test stayed true to form of the first two Tests of the series, in that it was epic and nail-bitingly close - so don’t be surprised if we get the same across the Pennines this week for the fourth Test.

When is the Fourth Test Match of the Ashes?

The players and fans have a well-earned rest from the crazy first three matches with a nine-day break before the fourth Test.

The Ashes will then return at 11am on Wednesday July 19th.

Where is the Fourth Ashes Test being held?

After the Headingley crowd and the famous Western Terrace willed England over the line, Mark Wood quipped:

“The support is always better in the North isn’t it”.

England will be hoping the Old Trafford crowd in Manchester will be able to recreate that magic.

England’s record at Old Trafford is extremely good, winning 13 of their last 16 tests at the ground.

However, those three times they haven’t won have all been against Australia: draws in 2005 and 2013, and a loss in 2019, which included an incredible double ton from Steve Smith.

Who are the favourites to win the Ashes Series?

Despite England’s Third test victory, they are still unsurprisingly underdogs to win the next two and secure what would be the most famous Ashes victory in English cricket history.

Australia are 2/5 favourites to win the series, while England are 4/1.

A draw is penned in at 11/2.

How will the teams line up for the Fourth Ashes Test?

England have announced their team for the fourth test, bringing back James Anderson for Ollie Robinson.

1. Ben Duckett
2. Zak Crawley
3. Moeen Ali
4. Joe Root
5. Harry Brook
6. Ben Stokes
7. Jonathan Bairstow
8. Chris Woakes
9. Mark Wood
10. Stuart Broad
11. James Anderson

On the Australia side of things, David Warner can’t shake the Stuart Broad-shaped monkey off his back and may have to be taken out of the firing line, while Mitch Marsh’s excellent hundred and handy contribution with the ball will give Australia a selection headache.

Cameron Green should return to the side, so the balance of the team could change quite drastically.
