There is actually an Australia A tour of england right before the ashes, in fact australia play the A side in a 4 day game :grinning: ... The squad is going to be huge, langer has said he won't finalize anything until after the A tour is complete so they can get a good look at some of the guys playing in english conditions.

Actually swap warner for Khawaja
Unless soemthnig drastic happens, I think Khawaja has booked his spot.

I think also they need to take Wade. The tour is too long to not have a keeper backup.

No idea if it will be wade or not but without doubt there will be a second keeper over there playing in the aussie a team

Interestingly all 5 of Vaughan, Julian, O'Keefe, Hussey and Lawson all named Labuschagne in their predicted Ashes Squads today.

8 innings to date with an average of 26, and only 1 score of 50+ (against Sri Lanka's popgun attack). Surely we ain't taking him to England to take on the hooping Duke ball?

Aussie selectors have got rocks in their head if they dont play Wade in all 3 formats.

He is the best batsmen in Australia at the moment and in the form of his life.

My goodness, if the heat batted first, they could have easily broke the highest T20 score in the bbl. They finished at 0-158 after 10 overs.

Cummins won the AB medal tonight. It has been a great recovery for him after all those injuries in his earlier years.

Is the Big Bash finally over?

In real cricket news, how great was Kusal Perera’s and Oshada Fernando’s last stand to beat South Africa. This is test cricket at its nail biting finest.

Edit: sorry, @DoggiesBoy , i didn't see your post!

Terrible squad, but that is to be expected from someone who doesn't know the players names.

Maxwell just hit his 3rd t20 hundred against India in India to win the series. It baffles me that he can't make the ODI team let alone the test team
