Australian Ashes Team 2010/11 - Ponting Misses Out On 5th Test Match
The Australian team, who will be looking to win the Ashes back will be captained by Ricky Ponting. It will be Ponting’s fourth Ashes series as captain and his seventh as a player and quite possibly his last, especially on home soil with the next series some way off. Ponting will be hoping to put together as strong a team as possible as they look to win the Ashes back they lost in England last time. He will need to mix the experience of the likes of Michael Clarke with the younger players such as Steven Smith who will bat at seven if needed after being selected.

The Top Australian Batsman Betting is looking particularly hot at the moment with Ricky Ponting and Mike Hussey currently at the top of the market. Shane Watson is another who is in the squad at the top of the order, he has turned himself into an opener and could flourish this series. The Australian bowling attack now looks settled with Mitchell Johnson now firing on all cylinders after his great display in Perth, Michael Beer is also back in the squad and he could make his debut at Sydney in the new year.
