England going with the LM attack, Tongue at one end and Root at the other.

Starc and Head both in front of Carey for mine.


Both worthy IMO

Starc because he hasn't had the support crew around him this series and has stood up the entire series.

Carey because he's batted out of his normal position at very short notice and completely dominated the position and the English planning (if they had any)

We only need a new opener, no.3, middle order batter, all-rounder, a spinner and a pace bowler younger than 35

Very lucky to win 4-1

I note (by the numbers on left chests of playing tops) that England have had over 700 guys playing Test cricket whilst the Aussies have less than 460.
Any idea why the huge discrepancy?
