Cricket Australia (CA) have announced the Australia playing 11 for the ENG vs AUS 4th Test Ashes 2023 and they have taken a couple of bold decisions. The duo of Scott Boland and Todd Murphy have been left out as Cameron Green and Josh Hazlewood make a comeback into the side. Boland went wicketless in the entire third Test match against England which is why Hazlewood has been included. On the other hand, off-spinner Todd Murphy bowled just 9.3 overs together in both the innings with just a single wicket. With Mitchell Marsh retaining his spot due to his remarkable century on comeback, Australia were also certain to bring back another all-rounder Cameron Green who has recovered completely from fitness concerns.

Despite twin failures in the third Test, senior opener David Warner has also retained his spot in the national side. However, Australia are going with an all-pace attack with as many as 5 fast bowling options and part-time spinners in Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne.
