• Craig Overton added to squad to face Australia next week
England have suffered a major blow to their hopes of regaining the Ashes after Jimmy Anderson was ruled out of the final two Tests with the calf injury he sustained in the opening match of the series.
It had been hoped the 37-year-old would return for next week’s fourth Test at his home ground of Old Trafford after he stepped up his recovery playing in a friendly for Lancashire’s second XI against Durham this week.
