• Craig Overton also replaced for final Test at the Oval
• Australia’s Tim Paine calls up Mitchell Marsh for Travis Head
England have made two changes to their side for the fifth Ashes Test starting at the Oval on Thursday, with Sam Curran and Chris Woakes replacing Jason Roy and Craig Overton.
Roy has failed to impress in the first four matches of the series, while the England and Wales Cricket Board also confirmed Ben Stokes would not bowl in the match, which gets under way on Thursday, because of a shoulder injury.
