I was reading an article on BBC recently BBC Sport - England's Ashes issues: Moeen Ali, Sam Robson and bowlers
And included in this article was Micheal Vaughan's 2015 Ashes XI:
1. Alastair Cook 2. Alex Hales 3. Gary Ballance 4. Ian Bell 5. Joe Root 6. Ben Stokes 7. Jos Buttler 8. Moeen Ali 9. Stuart Broad 10. Steven Finn 11. James Anderson.
I was surprised that he had put Stokes at 6, dropped Moeen to 8(Although you will see i also put him in at 8) and brought in Steven Finn.
I think Hales is probably ready for test and we are desperate for a new opener after Robson failed in the India series.
This would be my line up:
1.Cook 2.Hales 3.Ballance 4.Bell(Debatable) 5.Root 6.Ravi Patel 7.Buttler 8.Moeen 9.Jordan 10.Broad 11.Anderson
What do you guys think?
