England will bid to regain the Ashes urn this summer - and you can watch every ball live on Sky Sports!
Joe Root's first overseas series as Test captain ended in a crushing 4-0 defeat as England shipped the Ashes back to Australia in 2017-18.
Things looked brighter for Root's side as they beat India 4-1 at home last summer before completing a 3-0 sweep in Sri Lanka, however some familiar batting frailties were exposed in their 2-1 defeat to Windies.
Australia have struggled since their Ashes success, not least because of the ball-tampering scandal that led to bans for David Warner, Steve Smith and Cameron Bancroft.
All three could be back for the Ashes this summer, giving the most anticipated Test series in cricket - which comes hot on the heels of the World Cup - even more spice in August and September.
