 The main change from the England side that won 3-0 at home this year is the inclusion of Michael Carberry at the top of the order to open with Alastair Cook, which was also allowed Joe Root to slide down to No.6, the position occupied by Jonny Bairstow for much of the home series. Matt Prior suffered a calf tear during the warm-up match in Hobart and remains in doubt, and Bairstow would keep wicket if Prior is ruled out.

England (probable) 1 Alastair Cook (capt), 2 Michael Carberry, 3 Jonathan Trott, 4 Kevin Pietersen, 5 Ian Bell, 6 Joe Root, 7 Matt Prior / Jonny Bairstow (wk), 8 Stuart Broad, 9 Graeme Swann, 10 Chris Tremlett, 11 James Anderson.


The SCG In Numbers

Australia-England Tests: 54 (Australia won 25, England won 22, with seven draws)  

Highest Ashes total: 659-8 declared by Australia in December 1946. Sid Barnes and Don Bradman both made 234, adding 405 for the fifth wicket (still a world record). 

Lowest Ashes total: 42 by Australia in February 1888. It remained a world record until 1896, and could have been even lower had they not recovered from 26-8.

Highest individual Ashes score: The 287 scored by England's Tip Foster in 1903 remained an SCG record until Michael Clarke's 329 not out against India in 2012.

Most Ashes runs: 808 by England's Wally Hammond, averaging an astonishing 161.40 with two double centuries and two other tons in five matches between 1928 and 1946.

Best Ashes bowling (innings): 8-24 by England seamer George Lohmann in February 1887. He took 8-58 on the same ground five years later

Player of the Series -Mitchell Johnson(Australia)

 
Highlights
George Bailey(46)and Chris Rogers(58)scored 109 Runs for the 5th wicket in Australia's 2nd innings

Chris Rogers scored his 2nd Ton in consecutive tests 
Australia's 5-0 victory is only the 3rs such rout in an Ashes series, with all three such verdicts going in favour of Australia on their home soil: they had previously beaten England 5-0 in 1920-21 and 2006-07.

Overall, it is Australia's 5th such verdict against any opposition - they have also beaten West Indies (2000-01) and South Africa (1931-32) by 5-0 margins

England lost 20 wickets in 543 balls in this Test; in other words, they batted 90.3 overs - which is three balls over a regular day's play - and were bowled out twice.

Mitchell Johnson's series haul of 37 wickets is the 9th highest in an Ashes series, but the fifth-best in a five-Test contest. Jim Laker's 46 in five Tests in 1956 is the highest in any Ashes, while the best for Australia in a five-Test Ashes is Shane Warne's 40 in England in 2005. Johnson's 37 is the best by an Australia bowler in a five-Test Ashes series in Australia.


Ryan Harris' 5 for 25 is his fourth five-for in 12 Test Matches against England; out of his 93 Test wickets, 57 have come against England at an average of 20.63

The 5-0 series drubbing has pushed Australia up to No. 3 in the ICC Test Rankings while England have slipped to No. 4

Australia's Ashes Celebrations
