Nice one mate.

What do we think/want the team will look like??
My guess is:

Cook*
Hales/Trott
Ballance
Bell
Root
Moeen
Buttler+
Stokes
Plunkett
Broad
Anderson

You can't beat a day at a test match, especially the ashes. Get there early to take in the build up if you can.

Waiting for the Lords ballot to open to try and get tickets for a group of 7-8 of us, wish they would hurry up.

Hales would love them to give him a go
Ballance
Bell
Root
Moeen
Buttler+
Stokes
Plunkett
Broad
Anderson

they dont have much test cricket before the ashes so it will be fairly similar to what finished this summer no convinced by stokes in the test side but not sure who else they would pick rather him then woakes though

The only way that Hales will get in the side is an unbelievable winter of ODI cricket with tons (literally) of runs under his belt where there's no other choice than slot him in the side. Otherwise, I'd expect an already capped player or Adam Lyth if he carries on into the start of the new year.

I think the bigger question is what will the Australian side be like? Will Rogers make it until then, the India series could be it. I fully expect the Australians to run India all over the park on their own turf personally.

Can't believe some of you would put Hales in the test team ahead of Lyth!!!

Seems as if with a bit of luck I will be in the Long Room for the Lords test... :)

I think that predictions for the team at this point are pretty premature - there is a lot of cricket to be played between now and then - I mean there is still time for  KP comeback ;)

I've got 4 tickets for the 4th day at Trent bridge. Praying the match lasts that long. Especially at the price per ticket, £85!

Maybe it's because us English are more confident that we can win back The Ashes than win the World Cup! Have you seen England play ODI cricket lately??
