Agree on Atkinson and Stokes, but i think you have to play Archer in as many as possible- if he is bowling well.

At his best, he is a different level. We've not had that in an ashes tour for a long, long time.

I'd settle for a competitive series, for us to at least be in the games. That has been the worst part of recent tours. The ashes is the summit of cricket and the last three tours have been a total non event.
