Re: [Cricket] The Ashes Squad
I'd agree with Ste's order, but I think Trescothick for all his shaky form would be a better pick to face Warne and McGrath than another bowler in Plunkett, given that the squad already has five quality bowlers in Harmison/Hoggard/Panesar/Flintoff/Collingwood, as well as Pietersen and Strauss having put in some decent overs this summer. Also, Giles would still be my pick for the last bowler if needed - can you honestly imagine Mahmood or Plunkett bowling a maiden against Ponting?
