Sydney Cricket Ground weather: The SportsRush presents before you the weather prediction for Day 1 of fourth AUS vs ENG Test.

The fourth Test match of the ongoing Ashes 2021-22 will be played between Australia and England in Sydney from tomorrow. With Australia gaining an unassailable 3-0 lead in a five-match series, Sydney Cricket Ground will once again host a dead rubber Ashes Test.

Announcing their respective Playing XIs on the eve of the match, both teams have made a change ahead of this match. While Australia have included batter Usman Khawaja as Travis Head’ replacement, England have brought back veteran pacer Stuart Broad for Ollie Robinson. The development means that the English senior-pair of James Anderson and Broad will get to play another Ashes Test in the same XI.

Scheduled to host a Test after exactly a year, SCG will witness a clash between teams who have done well here historically. In 109 Tests at this iconic venue, Australia have won 60, lost 28 and drawn 21 over the years. England, on the other hand, have won 22, lost 27 and drawn seven out of their 56 Tests at this venue.
