James Anderson included in England squad

England recall James Anderson for the fifth Test of the Ashes series against Australia at the Oval.

England have included James Anderson in their squad for the fifth Test of the Ashes series at the Oval later this month.

The team's leading wicket-taker missed the fourth match of the series at Trent Bridge with a side injury, but has been included in the 14-man squad for the final meeting, which gets underway on August 20.

Derbyshire bowler Mark Footitt, who was an unused squad player for the fourth Test, is left out, while opening batsman Adam Lyth retains his place, despite average just 12.28 in the series.

England have already won the urn back from Australia after taking an unassailable 3-1 lead.
