Ashes Tour Update

England have announced their squad for the third test match with Steven Finn and Graham Onions dropped from the side. Chris Tremlett and Monty Panesar have been added to the squad, while batsman James Taylor, who just scored a century for Sussex against the Australians, is an injury back-up for Kevin Pietersen.

Meanwhile the make-up of the Australian side is still yet to be decided after some indifferent performances in the tour match. Phillip Hughes made 84 and 38, Steven Smith 102*, Ed Cowan 66 and 77*, and Usman Khawaja 40 and 1. Also as well all know David Warner hit 193 against South Africa A earlier in the week, and the prevailing thought is that he is almost certain to come into the side. With Smith's century, the last spot in the batting order is probably come down to either Khawaja or Hughes. Despite Hughes being the leading run-scorer for the tour, he is thought to be the most likely to be left out.

The next test gets underway on Thursday.
