Australian Test bowler Peter Siddle has said that he has done everything he can before the Ashes and the preparation has been nice with the body feeling good.

According to News.com.au, Siddle has played all five Tests in each of the past three series against England and hasn't missed a match since he was controversially left out of the decisive encounter against South Africa in Perth almost a year ago.

He said that it was nice to have it out of the way after being selected in the Ashes team and will always be up for the fight.

Siddle is one of a handful of Australians who have played in the three recent losing Ashes series and it rankles painfully, the report said.
