It's The Ashes (again)

[Beachboysbaggie]

I'm not concerned about our pace attack in the medium to long term. Our spin options worry me. It's a sad indictment of the state of our spin bowling that we're relaying on a retired and (let's be honest) out of form batsman who can bowl some spin (OK, he's more than a part timer, but he's certainly no a front line spinner). 

Massive fan of Ali, but there's something about his late call up that should set alarm bells ringing in the ECB about what it says about our long term spin bowling selection.

He’s our 3rd highest wicket taking spinner of all time
