Starting with this series, the four-year cycle of Ashes series in England will be brought forward by two years.Australia were brought forward one year beginning with the 2013–14 series. This rescheduling was to avoid a clash with the 2015 World Cup, which was hosted by Australia and New Zealand, and future World Cup preparations. England last hosted the Ashes in 2013.

However, this rescheduling will cause England to host an Ashes series in 2019 immediately after the 2019 World Cup in England.

The rescheduling has been criticised in some quarters as owing to greed and commercialism.The ECB have also commented that having three Ashes series in two years will also prevent any future Ashes series down-under from affecting World Cup preparations.
