Based on recent performances, Zak Crawley from England and Marnus Labuschagne from Australia could be the probable best batters for the upcoming match.
Zak Crawley had an impressive performance in the 4th Test of the Ashes 2023, where he scored 189 runs. His current form and ability to play long innings make him a strong contender.
On the Australian side, Marnus Labuschagne has been consistent with his performances. In the same 4th Test of the Ashes 2023, he scored 51 and 111 runs in two innings. His ability to adapt to different conditions and his consistency make him a key player for Australia.
Based on recent performances and current form, Stuart Broad from England and Pat Cummins from Australia could be the probable best bowlers for the upcoming match.
Stuart Broad was picked for his fourth Ashes tour after making an encouraging return from the torn calf muscle he sustained in August on the eve of the second Test against India. His experience and ability to exploit swing could make him a key player for England.
On the Australian side, Pat Cummins has been consistently performing well. His pace and ability to extract bounce from the pitch make him a threat to any batting line-up.

There is no any specific information about injuries in the England and Australia cricket teams before the match on November 4.
Given the recent performances of both teams, Australia seems to hold a slight edge over England due to their consistent victories in the latest matches. In their last five games, Australia emerged victorious in four, losing only one match to South Africa. Their bowlers and batters have been in striking form, with top performances from Marnus Labuschagne and Pat Cummins.
On the other hand, England’s recent form is a cause for concern. They’ve lost four of their last five matches, indicating some struggle with their form and performance. However, it’s important to remember that cricket is a game of uncertainty and the past does not always dictate the future. England has experienced players like Zak Crawley and Stuart Broad, who have the ability to turn the game around.
A closer analysis of their head-to-head matches shows Australia’s dominance, having won four out of the five recent matches against England. However, England’s victory in September 2020 shows they have the capability of pulling off a win against Australia.

The redesigned stadium now spans 63 acres and includes 76 corporate boxes, a 55-room clubhouse, an Olympic-sized swimming pool, LED roof lights, four dressing rooms, and multiple cricket pitches with different types of soil.
In February 2021, the new stadium hosted its inaugural gameβa day-night Test against the English team. In 2022, it was the venue for the IPL final, where more than 100,000 spectators witnessed the home team Gujarat Titans defeat the Rajasthan Royals to claim their first title.
The ICC Cricket World Cup stands as the premier international championship for One Day International (ODI) cricket.

In this phase, 10 teams, including the host nation, compete for the coveted title, with matches taking place at venues within the host nation over the course of about a month.

The reigning champions are England, who claimed the title in the 2019 World Cup edition.
