The England Team - Ashes 2010/11 - Broad Going Home With Stomach Injury
England are in Australia to defend the Ashes they won at home last year, it will not be an easy task and Andrew Strauss and Andy Flower will be wanting to take the team they believe can win down under. The Management team have made it clear they want players who have the right frame of mind in their team as well as the required talent to succeed under the most intense pressure.
Latest Ashes Series 2010/11 Outright Win Odds
England have plyed pretty well during the summer with the majority of the squad now as good as runner stamped, there is some concern over Kevin Pietersen who has been woefully out of touch in recent months. He was dropped from the ODI Team at the back end of the Summer and is in South Africa hoping to pick up a bit of form before heading Down Under, he is though still one of the favourites in the Top England Batsman Odds for the 2010/11 Ashes Series.
Monty Panesar has made the trip Down Under as the second spinner and could well play an important part in the series, while Chris Tremlett is in the squad as an extra seamer with his height expected to help on the bouncy pitches in Australia.
