The fourth Test match of the ongoing Ashes series between England and Australia will begin in Manchester tomorrow onwards. With action set to resume after more than a week in what has been a belter of a Test series thus far, passionate fans would be expecting more out of refreshed cricketers during the course of the next five days.

With England trailing by 1-2 before the penultimate match of the series, they need to get their act right for the second time in a row to stay in contention as far as regaining the urn is concerned. Even if not for an English victory, fans across the globe would be hoping for a drawn contest in the hope that the fifth Test doesn’t get converted into an archetype dead-rubber.
Having already labeled the series as “one of the best Men’s Ashes in a long time”, England captain Ben Stokes would be proceeding with caution with respect to not losing at Old Trafford primarily because of the fact that he hasn’t lost a Test series as captain till now.
“If we win this one and it goes to 2-2, it will be hard to not say this has been the best Men’s Ashes series in a long time, if not probably the best”
