Mr Cricket will be playing. One of the strength's of the AUS team is that they pick their world class players even if they have a dip in form (the one exception maybe being Damien Martyn)
Lee is a strike bowler, and still quick, so I think he'll play where pitches suit raw pace. He's always been a great athlete who hasnt quite fulfilled his potential.
I look at that team and see a team who has lost a lot of leaders and a lot of stars.

Unfortunately the disasterous sacking of KP as captain has weakened England badly also... but if we can pull it together we have a chance against the most untested Australian team of a generation.
England team:
Strauss
Cook
Bell
Peterson
Bopara
Collingwood
Flintoff
Prior
Broad
Sidebottom
Panasear
