Cricket fans in England and Australia are waiting in anticipation for the 5 match Ashes test series to begin. The 2023 Ashes will take place in England and will run from 16 June to 31 July.
Pat Cummins will lead the Aussies who are the current holders of the Ashes while Ben Stokes will captain England in the 73rd Ashes series and look to win back the urn on British soil.
Chance For Veteran Players To Bow Out On A High
The Ashes is the biggest series for both England and Australia and fans will want a closely contested series. The Ashes has generally tended to be the end of captain’s and sometimes careers for players who do not perform as well as they should have and this year, it will be no different.
England’s veteran duo of James Anderson and Stuart Broad are playing their last Ashes series and will want to do well to help England win the Ashes and retire on a high note. For Australia, David Warner is playing his last Ashes series and it could very well be the last Ashes series for former captain Steve Smith. If Warner and Smith play like they used to, they can help Australia retain the Ashes.
