England, who have won the last two Ashes series, sit second in the International Cricket Council rankings, while Australia slipped one place to fourth with defeat in India.Last week, he was ruled out for 10 weeks with the hamstring and lower back injuries which prevented him playing in the final Test in India, but he is expected to be fit to face England. The players know how big the next 12 months are and it is still our aim to win back the urn and make Australia proud.Clarke, 31, added: "All of us understand our performances over the last four Tests were not acceptable.Everyone in Australian cricket knows how much the Ashes means to the country and we will do everything within our power to turn the ship around after our disappointing tour of India," he said. One bad tour doesn't define a squad and I'm confident we can take the fight to England," said Clarke, who is currently recovering from injury. That said, we are only a couple of months removed from advancing to within one Test match of taking the number one ranking from South Africa.
