This is the 31st Australian touring team to play Test cricket in England.
In 1985, with captain David Gower , England regained the Ashes. In 1986/7, with Mike Gatting leading the team to Australia, they retained the Ashes when the series was drawn. In both these series the Australian captain was Allan Border and he again leads his team to England. His opposite number, as in 1985, is David Gower.
