This meant this series was held three years after the previous 2010–11 series in Australia and only three months after the end of the 2013 Ashes in England. The schedule for series in England was brought forward by two years, beginning in 2015, which swapped where each series is to be played in subsequent years. This rescheduling was to avoid clashes between Ashes series in Australia and the Cricket World Cup, both previously held very close together in their four-year cycles. Squads On 23 September 2013, England announced a 17-man touring party for the Ashes series. Former Ireland international bowler Boyd Rankin, New Zealand-born all-rounder Ben Stokes and Zimbabwe-born batsman Gary Ballance all received call-ups despite being uncapped for England in Tests, while opening batsman Michael Carberry, spin bowler Monty Panesar and seamer Chris Tremlett were also included. Among those who missed out were opening batsman Nick Compton, spin bowler James Tredwell and seamers Graham Onions, who helped Durham win the championship, and Tim Bresnan, although Bresnan was suffering from a back injury and still travelled with the squad to Australia. Matt Prior was the only specialist wicket-keeper in the side; Jonny Bairstow was designated to deputise for him.Ashes: Gary Ballance, Ben Stokes, Boyd Rankin in England squad https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/24205786 BBC Sport 21 October 2013 On 12 November 2013, Australia announced a 12-man squad for the first Test, including ODI stand-in captain George Bailey, who at that point was still yet to make his Test debut.Ashes 2013–14: Bailey & Johnson in Australia squad https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/24905679 BBC Sport 12 November 2013 Also included was Mitchell Johnson, who, according to Australian captain Michael Clarke and coach Darren Lehmann, Johnson was recalled to the 12-member squad "partly on the faith that he can demonstrate greater control across the series;"Brettig Daniel Australia bet the house on Johnson http://www.espncricinfo.com/the-ashes-2013-14/content/story/687737.html ESPNcricinfo 6 March 2016 12 November 2013 with Clarke backing Johnson's inclusion in the squad by remarking, "I said a couple of days ago if Mitch was selected in this squad, it wouldn't surprise me if in a couple of months' time you see Mitch being Man of the Series."Ashes 2013-14: Mitchell Johnson's redemption one of sport's greatest https://www.bbc.com/sport/cricket/25616641 BBC Sport 12 May 2020 6 January 2014Marks Vic Ashes 2013-14: Mitchell Johnson will never be a true fast bowling ogre Vic Marks https://theguardian.com/sport/2013/dec/11/ashes-2013-14-mitchell-johnson-fast-bowling-ogre The Guardian 11 December 2013 On 25 November 2013, Jonathan Trott pulled out of the remainder of the tour citing a stress-related illness.http://www.espncricinfo.com/the-ashes-2013-14/content/story/692405.html England in Australia 2013–14 : Jonathan Trott returns home due to stress-related illness | Cricket News | Australia v England ESPN Cricinfo 7 January 2014 On 21 December 2013, Graeme Swann retired from international cricket with immediate effect.https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/cricket/international/theashes/10533225/Ashes-2013-14-England-bowler-Graeme-Swann-announces-he-is-to-retire-from-international-cricket.html https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220112/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/cricket/international/theashes/10533225/Ashes-2013-14-England-bowler-Graeme-Swann-announces-he-is-to-retire-from-international-cricket.html 12 January 2022 subscription live Ashes 2013–14: England bowler Graeme Swann announces he is to retire from international cricket The Daily Telegraph 22 December 2013 21 December 2013 Two days later, it was announced that leg-spinner Scott Borthwick and off-spinner James Tredwell had been called up following Swann's retirement.England call up Scott Borthwick & James Tredwell https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/25490206 BBC Sport 23 December 2013 AUShttp://www.espncricinfo.com/the-ashes-2013-14/content/story/687669.html Bailey named in Test squad 12 November 2013 Espncricinfo.com 7 January 2014 ENG Michael Clarke (c) Brad Haddin (vc, wk) George Bailey Doug Bollinger† James Faulkner Ryan Harris Mitchell Johnson Nathan Lyon Nathan Coulter-Nile† Chris Rogers Peter Siddle Steve Smith David Warner Shane Watson Alex Doolan† Alastair Cook (c) Kevin Pietersen (vc) James Anderson Jonny Bairstow (wk) Gary Ballance Ian Bell Tim Bresnan Stuart Broad Michael Carberry Steven Finn Monty Panesar Matt Prior (wk) Boyd Rankin Joe Root Graeme Swann Ben Stokes Chris Tremlett Jonathan Trott Scott Borthwick† James Tredwell† † Late addition Australia played the same eleven in every test: Warner, Rogers, Watson, Clarke, Smith, Bailey, Haddin, Johnson, Siddle, Harris and Lyon.
