The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) selection committee has made some big decisions, with the biggest one being the appointment of Harry Brook as the new Test vice-captain.
Harry Brook - the white-ball captain - has been handed the vice-captaincy in Test cricket as well, replacing Ollie Pope in the role.
In another major development, the express pacer Mark Wood has finally recovered from his knee injury and is ready to fire Down Under. Along with him, the off-spinner Shoaib Bashir has also recovered from his finger injury and is fully fit to go.
