England have a much more experienced and formidable bowling attack compared to Australia. Bowlers like Jimmy Anderson and Stuart Broad have dominated in English conditions with the ball and they have been well supported by Chris Woakes and Sam Curran.
Furthermore, England has also included their 'X-Factor' bowler Jofra Archer in their squad for the first Test match. It'll be interesting to see whether Archer makes into the 11 or not. The Australian batsmen will have to be very careful, as the English bowlers will give them no freebies whatsoever like the last time.
It will be interesting to see how the Aussies manage the workload of the experienced members of the team, comprising Steve Smith, David Warner, Pat Cummins, and Mitch Starc as they have been playing continuous cricket since the World Cup and will play a huge role in determining how the Aussies fare against the hosts who seem to have the upper hand.
