    Hazlewood will miss the 3rd test, Cummins is back and Harris keeps his place despite being the biggest failure (so far) amongst the 'specialist batsmen' from either side .. Starc is also due to play

    The England T20 side selected for the tour of the West Indies in January looks a stronger outfit than that selected for the Ashes lol .. 

    Squad: Eoin Morgan (Middlesex - captain), Moeen Ali (Worcestershire), Tom Banton (Somerset), Sam Billings (Kent), Liam Dawson (Hampshire), George Garton (Sussex), Chris Jordan (Surrey), Liam Livingstone (Lancashire), Saqib Mahmood (Lancashire), Tymal Mills (Sussex), David Payne (Gloucestershire), Adil Rashid (Yorkshire), Jason Roy (Surrey), Phil Salt (Lancashire), Reece Topley (Surrey), James Vince (Hampshire).
    England are now a really strong white ball nation. We could field 2 really strong sides in the World Cup

    So now that Michael Vaughan has been switched to cover the Big Bash, another former England captain and commentator is going to be part of the BT Ashes team - David Gower

    Vaughan is actually covering both for his Aussie Network (Fox?) but BT have decided to remove him when he commentates, whereas Sky who show the Blast haven't!

    Looks like Boland will play in the Test and Cummins will return to join Richardson, Lyon and Green with Hazlewood (still injured), Starc (a niggle) and Nesser (dropped) all missing out

    Boland will become only the second indigenous Australian to play in a Test match - Gillespie was the first

    England have named the previously leaked team with Burns, Pope, Broad and Woakes dropped for Crawley, Bairstow, Wood and Leach

    Agree, I think that's about right with the personnel available.

    Scott Boland makes his Aussie debut at age 32, following Michael Neser at age 31 .. interesting that Cummins and Starc are no spring chickens and as for Anderson and Broad ? .. Wood is a mere kid at age 31 (nearly 32)

    Cummins (28) is younger than Starc (31) and Hazlewood (30).

    All three are younger than Chris Woakes (32).

    If you think Aussies have problems with an aging bowling attack..!

    It's raining - but only lightly. Gower and McGrath reckon that the team that wins the toss should bowl.

    Great to have Gower back.

    I was thinking that would be Hobart with the climate of Tasmania… no doubt Brisbane was the toughest but I would’ve hoped we’d make a fight of it in Adelaide.

    Never heard of this Boland fella?

    Is it too early to say Boland out?

    Starc is playing and Richardson has been left out as well as Nesser. Bit harsh on Richardson given he took at 5 fer in the last innings
