Barring a massive reversal of fortunes, I can't us winning the Ashes this year. We've really only got two batting slots sorted (Warner and Clarke) - everybody else is just too inconsistent. You know you've got problems when tail-enders are consistently scoring more than specialist batsmen.
On the plus side, we do have fairly decent pace bowlers (although I wouldn't mind Jackson Bird being given another chance, he was fantastic against Sri Lanka). And Nathan Lyon hit some form towards the end in India, so we've got our one and probably only spinner sorted.
