JE Sports Desk: Veteran England pacer James Anderson has been named in the playing XI for the fourth Ashes test to be played at the Old Trafford, Manchester. Anderson has replaced another pacer Ollie Robinson who failed to make an impact in Headingly where England won by 3 wickets.

On the other hand, Australia might ponder over the possibility of replacing out-of-form David Warner with Marcus Harris.

Australia's Marcus Harris is prepared to make an impact if he gets a chance in the Ashes series against England, even though he expects opener David Warner to play the fourth test at Old Trafford from Wednesday.

Warner's place in the side remains a matter of speculation after his twin failure in Leeds where he fell to Stuart Broad in both innings as England prevailed by three wickets to stay alive in the five-match series.

Warner has managed one half-century in six innings in the series but forged three fifty-plus opening partnerships with Usman Khawaja.
