Ashes 2017/18: Five English cricketers to watch out for

England will look to defend the urn

England's Warne?

20-year-old English leggie Mason Crane is one of the three uncapped players called up for the Ashes.

Crane, a Hampshire County cricketer, holds the record for being the youngest player to take a five-wicket haul in the club's history. A big fan of Shane Warne, Crane was inspired by the Aussie during the 2005 Ashes in England as an eight-year-old.

Crane now has the chance to play the Ashes, just like his idol Warne and many others did before him.

England have a young, inexperienced squad who could test the Aussies, and the 20-year-old looks set to make his debut for the national side.
