2. James Pattinson
He has been the saving grace of Australian cricket along with Shane Watson in the recent times. The talented paceman can join the ranks of Dale Steyn and James Anderson with a top performance in the Ashes. He has the wherewithal to dismantle any top order of the world as he extracts swing in most conditions at a healthy pace. He seems to have an intelligent cricket mind and that is always a good sign in a fast bowler. He had a huge learning curve with the tour against India and should come out as a better bowler. His performance will be crucial for Australia’s fortunes at the Ashes.
