The fifth and final clash of The Ashes takes place at The Oval as England and Australia go head to head in what could be the series decider. Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that by now, the hosts will be well and truly beaten. But back in 2005, the visitors came to The Oval needing a win but were denied by the heroics of Andy Strauss, Kevin Pietersen and Andy Flintoff as England secured the series 2-1 in dramatic fashion. The subsequent whitewash Down Under saw the pendulum swing somewhat, but Ricky Ponting's side return to our shores with an inexperienced squad ripe for the taking. Either way, it would be great for spectators if the series was not already wrapped up by the time the players take to the pitch in sunny south London.
